Row over Subhas Chandra Bose’s belonging, explained| India News

Published by Parlour News

Chandra Kumar Bose, a grandnephew of freedom fighter Subhas Chandra Bose, has demanded an investigation into the “authenticity” of Netaji’s cap currently on display at the Red Fort museum. His demand follows an initial claim that the cap was missing, which was clarified by the authorities. He has now claimed that the cap — back in its glass case in Delhi — may not be the original one. The cap belongs to Subhas Chandra Bose, leader of the Indian National Army and one of the main faces of India’s freedom movement against British colonial raj. (Photos: X/@ASIGoI, @Chandrakbose) The controversy began when members of an organisation called Open Platform for Netaji (OPN) discovered an empty display case at the INA Museum. Naveen Bamel, a lawyer and a member of the organisation, visited the museum recently and found the iconic cap was missing. Staff were reportedly unable to provide an immediate explanation.

His remains were cremated there and taken to Tokyo. The community of Indian exiles who had made their home there arranged for the urn to be kept (and hidden from the US occupation forces) at Renkoji Temple temporarily — maybe a few months or a few years, at the most. Today, almost 80 years later, and more than 77 years after India became independent, Netaji’s remains are still honoured at Renkoji Temple. With Rev Mochizuki, the third generation of head priests exercises this function. At the time of Netaji’s death and shortly thereafter, a large part of the world was in total upheaval. Communication was archaic compared to today’s standards. There were several parties interested in ascertaining what truly happened to Netaji: Did he really die? …
