There is sort of a little bit of momentum in the demand for the declassification of paperwork after the introduction of the RTI regulation.” 

“I assume so far as declassification is worried, to one of the best of my information in the meanwhile, I assume the entire family is united. But there are variations of opinion so far as the aircraft crash concept is worried. But nearly all of the family as of now don’t consider in it,” Bose advised Smita Prakash, Editor (News) of ANI.

“Because that (aircraft crash opinion) is predicated on what is accessible in the general public area, what we’ve got seen, what the three commissions of inquiries have produced and what we’ve heard from dependable supply,” he added. 

He advised ANI that the assembly with Prime Minister Narendra Modi was cordial and went off very properly, and that he had acquired an assurance from the previous that he would look into the declassification matter of Netaji with all of the seriousness at his command.

“It was a really cordial dialog and we mentioned fairly a couple of subjects. We talked concerning the surveillance situation and the declassification of information. Those have been the primary subjects to start out with. Then, we in fact, talked about know-how, know-how switch and different issues,” stated Bose.

“He (Prime Minister Modi) no less than promised to look into it and check out his greatest to do one thing about it. I am hopeful,” Bose advised ANI.

On what he thought could possibly be in the information but to be declassified, a candid Bose admitted, “That is a troublesome factor to guess as a result of you do not know what’s in these information.

He additional said, “You cannot generalize, there are fractions of people who find themselves very, I will not say emotional, however can get excitable at brief discover. So, something can occur.”

He additionally stated that he had not sought a timeline for the declassification course of to be accomplished, and had solely requested the Prime Minister to have the information opened as quickly as potential.

“He (Prime Minister Modi) can do it; he has the facility to do it. The Manmohan Singh authorities didn’t do it for different causes. They didn’t need to do it, as a result of, they in all probability felt that it’s going to convey out a variety of dangerous information for the Nehru dynasty,” Bose informed ANI.

“We need the reality to return out and in addition diplomatic missions and the federal government ought to not propagate untruth concerning the freedom wrestle. It isn’t just Gandhi’s non-violence, non-cooperation that introduced India its freedom. It was Subhash Bose and his INA that gave the ultimate blow, which despatched the British packing, and this has been admitted by (British) Prime Minister (Clement) Atlee, by Lord Mountbatten (the final Viceroy of British India), when I and my father met him in London, in 1977,” stated Bose.

He was equally emphatic in saying that it was not solely the Bose family that needed closure in aright method on the difficulty, but in addition lots of his followers unfold throughout South and South East Asia, in addition to in the West.

“Well I do not assume it’s simply the family; you see there are sufficient Subhash Bose followers throughout India, throughout South East Asia who have been harm. I imply, a overseas minister of Japan, Mamoru Shigemitsu, in addition to a former Prime Minister of Japan, Hideki Tojo, co-hailed Netaji because the hero of Asia. Not only a hero of India, however a hero of Asia. And in Japan, he (Netaji) is held in the very best esteem,” stated Bose.

Elaborating on private equations inside the family, Surya Bose advised ANI, “My father (Amiya Nath Bose), I assume, was the closet to the elders, Sarat Chandra and the Subhash Chandra. In reality, these three have been all the time very shut so far as you realize the political motion was involved, they usually all mentioned issues with one another.” 

He added, “In reality, my father Amiya Nath and Subhash, they used to share the identical bed room and Subhashji used to return again fairly late, at midnight, after his all political conferences, and he used to get up my father, and say ‘get up, now, let’s speak about politics.’”

Surya Bose stated they used to debate Gandhi, Nehru, (Sardar) Patel, (Maulana Abul Kalam) Azad and all the opposite politicians, and concerning the political scene. 

“He was very mature for his age, my father, when he went to England to review additional, and arrange the committee of younger Congressmen, which supported the Indian freedom wrestle,” Bose advised ANI.

He described this entire episode of surveillance on the Bose family as fairly surprising.

“But that occurs in the most effective of the households additionally. This was on a a lot bigger scale; let’s put authorities surveillance on sure people and notably on a specific family,” he stated.

Meanwhile, one other grandnephew and the official spokesperson of Netaji’s family, Chandra Bose stated, “Modiji assured Bose family that he’ll see to it that correct scrutiny is carried out. PM stated his authorities believes in fact, Surya Bose could be very proud of the assembly.”

“The momentum that has constructed up, everyone seems to be asking for transparency,” he added. 

Chandra Bose had earlier stated, “The time has now come to declassify Netaji information. Saying it might have an effect on India’s relations with different nations is just a lame excuse. The Modi authorities has been speaking of transparency and now it’s the time to offer transparency by releasing these information which can inform us what occurred to Netaji throughout his final years.”

  1. The IB keeps tabs on many people of repute due to various reasons known only to the leadership of the country. So when the government says that there has been surveillance on Netaji’s kin but refuses to provide answers to ensuing questions, there’s a possibility that this issue has been raked up to tarnish the image of Nehru and the Congress party.

  2. Declassification
    of files may prove that JAPAN AND BRITISH JOINTLY PLAYED A FOUL GAME WITH
    NETAJI; In WW-I, Japan was an ally of British. Before WW-II, Japan-US trade war
    and

    political war started, this led to actual war between US and Japan. So British
    became an enemy to Japan by diplomatic manipulation as US – British alliance
    was there. After WW-II, Japan quickly revived their old connections with
    British. Japanese and British spies were enough linked before WW-II. JAPANESE
    SPIES AGREED TO ELIMINATE NETAJI. Motive was to appease the British and
    purchase security for Japan royal family. Thus, JAPAN HANDED OVER NETAJI TO
    BRITISH AND BRITISH EXECUTED HIM IN SECRETE. The false news of air crash was fabrication
    of Japan. In any controversial case, liar is to be suspected first.

    Netaji plan to
    start second independence war with USSR help was known to Japan. There was
    enough scope for British and Japanese spies to develop a common minimum program
    against pro-communist agenda of Netaji. Why should Japanese imperialism agree
    to patronize emergence of independent India as a permanent communist ally? Is
    it not more logical to fulfill British condition and purchase favor? Why Japan
    royal family was not tried as a war criminal? What is the mystery behind this
    favor?

    There is another
    point about gumnami baba. Who was he? Gumnami baba was a dummy created as a
    part of common minimum program of Japanese imperialism and British imperialism.
    In axis camp, creation of dummy by plastic surgery was a common practice.
    Hitler and Mussolini were having number of dummies. Japan sold Netaji-dummy to
    British. British deputed this dummy at faizabad of Uttar

    Pradesh, with a purpose to create confusion that as if death or life Netaji is
    doubtful. The confusion prevented the nation to be doubtful about role of Japan
    or British. So gumnami baba of faizabad is a common creation of Japanese spies
    and British spies. Never had he told the truth. If he had told anything, that
    must be lie. In a controversial case, liar is to be suspected. So, JAPAN SOLD
    NETAJI TO BRITISH AND BRITISH EXECUTED HIM IN SECRET. Japan sold Netaji-dummy
    to British and British deputed him at faizabad of Uttar-Pradesh. JAPAN
    SURRENDERED TO US-UK SIDE ON 15TH AUGUST 1945. Netaji’s last flight was on 18th
    august 1945. A SURRENDERED JAPAN WAS NO LONGER AN ALLY OF AZAD HIND. They
    worked as per their new mentors, the British.
