WHY THIS DECREE OF DEATH ON NETAJI OVER AND OVER AGAIN?

His decree of death was delivered long time back. The twice elected President of the Indian National Congress, the dependent nation's rebel to the Crown, owing to the ineptness of the British-appeasing leadership of the land, had to that day in great secrecy, in disguise, incognito, leave the shores of the motherland, risking his very life. When the fugitive was crossing the difficult mountainous terrain of Kabul, Kandahar and Afghanistan, the British intelligence was then smarting under the snub to their snobbery. Despite being foiled in broad daylight to eliminate Subhas Bose like they had heinously done in the case of Bhagat Singh and Jatin Das, the British now delivered on Bose in top secrecy a barbarous, violent decree of death. The notorious Scotland Yard was instructed to shoot at sight the fugitive Europe-bound Bose. But they were foiled this time as well.

From Germany the address, ''This is Subhas Chandra Bose speaking..." or the three month submarine journey culminating in the armed assault of Netaji from the South-east Asian theatre of war on British India actuated the hasty departure of the British from Indian soil, handing over power on the basis of legal terms and conditions to the palace-incarcerated leadership, now weary of the revolution of fasting. In February 1942 and in April 1945 this fake news of the death of Netaji and his entourage by air-crash was rumoured by the British to break up the worldwide network of Netaji at every level. A revolutionary of rare intellect, Subhas Bose, using this misinformation as his armament, spread the fictitious tale of his air-crash death at Taihoku on 18 August, 1945 to disappear along the Russian track and left behind many an incongruous link to indicate his future return along a newer path.
