And The 'Neta Controversy' Continues:)

I had a thought that this controversy is over by now! Well, any normal person won't think about this on a day to day basis and would have the same opinion as mine. Not really! Especially if your project is to find out the real truth behind it!

I'm not sure about the real facts. But let me put what I have learnt! It seems, the first commission was run by Shah Nawaz Khan, who served Indian National Army (INA) and the second one is under Justice G.D. Khosla. Okay, so? Well, there came this third commission under Justice M.K. Mukherjee which was setup on May 14, 1999 under the Commissions of Inquiry Act!! Why, for what? All these commissions were set up for a one reason - To investigate and find the real truth behind the disappearance and alleged death of Netaji Subash Chandra Bose, the commander of INA and the great Indian freedom fighter who lead the fight from Japan & Burma against the British rule. Now, don't you agree that we have better things to do than to fight over this controversy? If you differ, so be it!

This new commission was set up by BJP and it had been working for the past 6 years, going around Russia, Japan & Taiwan! What the heck? I accept that we need to give respects to those great leaders and we need to set out history right! But, that doesn't mean we just keep on wasting our resources, energy, time & money on something which will lead us no where! I guess, these theories & the controversies are going to live forever, till the day we have Indian Politicians who are not going to think about Indian people and their welfare!

So, did Netaji truly leave Bangkok and die in an air crash in Taipei on Aug 18, 1945? Or was he taken to Siberia and killed in front of the then Soviet Leader Joseph V. Stalin? Well, no one knows and this new Mukherjee commission stands against all those allegations! And the Congress government is not ready to accept this conclusion either?!

Well atleast they all accept on one point! Netaji is most probably not alive now because he'll be 108 years!!
