CELEBRATE COMING 16TH SEP, 25 YRS OF NETAJI DEATH

As we all know that he breath his last on 16 September 1985 as Bhagwanji of Faizabad (Ayodhya) proved by Justice
Mukherjee Commission report of 2005 though discarded by Congress Govt, without showing any reason and this is our
only chance to show respect to Subhas Chandra Bose, atlast!
Netaji mystery you always wanted to know:
In a recent documentary film on Subhas Chandra Bose, Justice Manoj Kumar Mukherjee has been shown to make a
comment giving new twist to the debate that has been going on since his report was rejected by the central government.
The former Supreme Court judge, who was tasked in the first part of the decade with finding the truth about Bose's
disappearance, has been captured on camera saying that he "strongly believes" that Bhagwanji of Faizabad was
Subhas Bose in disguise. The formation of Mukherjee Commission was not a political decision, for a start. This inquiry
came into existence following an order of the Calcutta High Court in 1998. Mukherjee report rejected the official view
that Netaji had died in an air crash, suggesting that he flew towards the Soviet Russia as a part of escape plan. It also
discussed the Bhagwanji angle. This conclusion was arrived after going through all relevant records but, government
counsel before the commission continuously repeated the above official stand and, in fact, argued against the old official
theory at the time of argument which took place when Manmohan Singh's government was in place. You cannot tell the
commission that you don't buy the crash theory and insist that the same crash theory is cardinal truth after the
commission has upheld that the crash theory is false. A government cannot change stance like that. A top legal eagle
can put them in serious trouble. If you recall, the same UPA government had rejected the report of Nanavati
Commission into November 1984 anti-Sikh riots where Congressi thugs had butchered thousands of innocents in Delhi
and elsewhere. But after some spirited public protests, the government accepted the same Nanavati report. Netaji
escape toward the USSR after fake news of his death was circulated by his Japanese benefactors and commission
report says that. But once you start taking Bhagwanji angle seriously -- on account of some legally admissible evidence -
you have got to pay some attention to what all he said. It is very strange that a man who on the face of was a poor
ascetic often talked about his harrowing experiences in Siberian concentration camps. Also how he and his friends
created a "concocted" story of air crash. The handwritings of Bhagwanji -- both in English and Bengali -- match with that
of Subhas as per B. Lal, India Govt’s most famous handwriting expert. In fact this is the only direct and legally
admissible evidence that Netaji was alive after 1945 -- and indeed upto 1985. The numerous witness accounts would
have tilted the scale in favour of this angle had the senior followers of Bhagwanji, who knew Bose for decades, were
alive now. The prominent of them was Leela Roy, who knew Bose right from 1920s, was a notable freedom fighter and
political leader. In fact her portrait was put up in Parliament in the presence of Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh
recently. Surely a person of such eminence and stature must be taken most seriously when her writings,
correspondence and statement to near and dear ones make it very clear that she took Bhagwanji to be Bose. None of
Bhagwanji's top associates with formidable Netaji connections ever talked about his in their life times as they were told
to keep things secret. It is our mortification to say that our own Government is a most unreliable entity when it comes to
Subhas Bose. But, let's get fact straight about handwriting tests. Three handwriting experts checked Bhagwanji's
handwriting. The first among them was B Lal, a former Chief Examiner of Questioned Documents - the highest post for a
handwriting expert in government. B Lal is a legendary figure in the field and one of the best. That's why he was initially
approached by then Hindustan Times journalist Anuj Dhar, now with Mission Netaji. After B Lal gave a positive report,
he was hired by the Mukherjee Commission and made available a large number of samples from both sides. B Lal gave
a descriptive, first rate report backed by loads of exhibits. He duly appeared before the Commission when summoned
and made his case brilliantly. The other two reports were given by then Chief Examiner of Questioned Documents and
state government expert. A look at the state government expert's report would convince anyone of its fraudulent nature.
While giving report, a handwriting expert is supposed to state reasons [as B Lal did] for the conclusions. The central
government report gave some reasons as their report first admitted that there were similarities in the handwriting and
then changed tack in the end. That they were not sure of their ground was clear from the fact that they did not appear
before the commission in Delhi where their former boss B Lal was also present at the time of hearing. Some teeth were
simply found in his room not of Babaji but may be of his Guru, etc. There were two different DNA tests performed on
these teeth presumed to be of Bhagwanji. While the Hyderabad lab gave an inconclusive report, the CFSL Kolkata
report was negative. It is to be noted that for some reason the expert who supervised the DNA tests was not willing to
appear before commission. He did so only after repeated summons. It must be stressed here that Mukherjee
Commission report criticized government of India for not cooperating with it. In fact the report said that certain
actions/inactions of the government "put a spoke in the wheel of this inquiry".
It is also a matter of record that, 1) Government of India has from the start shown no interest in resolving this matter. 2)
All the inquiries had to be constituted due to public pressure. 3) Government continues to withhold several secret files
on Bose's death. Bhagwanji was indeed Bose, as the evidence indicates, the government at higher level knew about it.
There are enough indications for that and moment the people of India began asking questions, the answers will tumble
out. Bhagwanji said things those - if they were true - will change our modern history. Bhagwanji was asked several times
why he was not going public. His standard answer would be: My coming out will not serve national interest. He talked
about his having been branded, with the connivance of Government of India, as international war criminal and his role in
world politics made him spent years within the confines of four walls. Personal belongings of Bhagwanji, included over
2,600 numerous items -- books, letters, gold watch, Bose’s family photographs, etc. Among the belongings were also
found by the commission a few teeth kept in a match box. Yet another factor was the kind of people who wrote letters to
Bhagwanji. There were letters from Prafulla Ghosh (the first chief minister of West Bengal), M S Golwalkar (then RSS
chief), Leela Roy (associate of Bose from 1920s), Pabitra Mohan Roy (former intelligence officer in INA) and others.
