BEAR THIS IN MIND, MY FRIENDS, OUT OF LOVE FOR NETAJI ... 1


The first and foremost thing a Netaji devotee must remember is not to be rude to others when in discourse on Netaji. Netaji was a highly civilised person and so must his followers be. A civilised approach is the prerequisite in this quest for whatever substantial we have set ourselves to achieving regarding Netaji. I frequently find wild charges being levelled at each other casually and without much concern for each other's feelings or sense of dignity outraged and it saddens me to think that we, yet, hold ourselves in our vanity to be the custodians of truth and justice seeking redress from the government for the ultimate perfidy it has perpetrated on our beloved Netaji. Such wild accusations of each other's intent hardly does any good to the cause of the resurrection of the patriot premier in the public imagination, to the rewriting of the true narrative of the freedom struggle or to the building up of the nation in the line of the great leader's vision and programmes thought out for its execution. And, above all, none should attempt to tarnish the reputation of our great leader through carefully crafted disparaging remarks which not only malign his memory but spread misinformation about him which is, after all, a great disservice done to the nation. Bearing these in mind, if we move with civility and without malice to any, with a firm resolve to unravelling the mystery that surrounds the disappearance of the liberator of our motherland, basing our affirmations and verbal stance adopted on hard fact that can withstand rational rigour and pass unscathed through the scientific scanner, that is historically tenable and not some facile arbitrary assumption of the hyper-imaginative mind seeking public acceptance for whatever interest it may serve the propagator of such, ours will be a movement worth the while, a mission on the march towards the citadel of truth and its ultimate disclosure, and will endure in its value that it will have permanently added to the entire discourse on Netaji.
