Netaji death row: NDA does a U-turn on Subhas Chandra Bose RTI reply, puts onus on UPA govt
The NDA government tried to wash its hands off a declaration that Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was dead by putting the onus on the previous UPA government, but added it would be willing to examine any “new fact” if and when it came up New Delhi: The NDA government on Friday tried to wash its hands off a declaration that Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was dead by putting the onus on the previous UPA government, but added it would be willing to examine any “new fact” if and when it came up. “The government has come to the conclusion that Netaji died in the plane crash on 18 August 1945,” the ministry said on 31 May, referring to the findings of the Shah Nawaz Committee, the Justice GD Khosla Commission and the Justice Mukherjee Commission of Enquiry on the subject. The spokesperson said the then government had rejected the findings of the Shah Nawaz Committee and the Khosla Commission — that Bose was not killed in the plane crash in Taipei in 1945, and that the ashes kept in Tokyo’s Renkoji Temple were not his. In the RTI reply, the NDA government also sought to dispel reports that Bose lived in disguise as ‘Gumnami Baba’ — the belief of a large section of Bose’s legion of admirers, many of whom held that he was alive, but in hiding.
