A DIALOGUE BETWEEN SATYENDRA SINGH AND MYSELF

Satyendra Singh It is highly disappointing and sad..... But I'm not surprised...... I saw it coming........ People abusing Gandhi...... Nehru...... Subhas..... It's a result of making cult of these leaders by their own fans..... You can't expect better.

Sugata Bose While Gandhi and Nehru, for sure, deserve much greater censure for the way they have destroyed the nation, Netaji does not. Hence, these aberrations hardly matter. But woe unto the nation that yet we hear these voices who try to smother the real history of India by painting these perfidious elements like Gandhi and Nehru in a brighter light than they deserve.

Satyendra Singh You are doing same thing here..... Smearing Gandhi...... Somewhere somebody is thinking differently........ and at least you can't blame him because you are same.

Sugata Bose Satyendra Singh, you are being given the reply that is most befitting for you and each time you criticise those that criticise Gandhi-Nehru, you shall continue to receive these rejoinders for we have had enough of your Gandhi brigade to our nations's doom. This was just an appetiser. The full course I have posted elsewhere for your sumptuous dinner as well which, if it be your Lordship's pleasure, you may freely feast on.

Satyendra Singh In fact I don't need any reply...... Simply because I don't belong to any Cult like you....... I'm unhappy on the insult of Gandhi and Subhas both...... While you are not only clapping but instigating the insult of Gandhi...... This game of reply and then reply again may bless you cultists..... I'm out of it...... Enjoy !!!!!!

Sugata Bose Satyendra Singh, thank you for obliging. I will be spared the sheer wastage of time on incorrigible Gandhians like you.

Satyendra Singh I belong to no brigade like you..... This brigadism may do good for you I wish.

Sugata Bose Satyendra Singh, I belong to no brigade of your choice too. I simply belong to my eternal Self which is the repository of the ultimate Truth and whose pale reflection is this false universe full of fair facades and fake intentions.

Satyendra Singh Even Subhas was a Gandhian

Sugata Bose Never ever, Satyendra Singh. Bose was never a Gandhian, although, as per circumstantial compulsions, he had to work under the leadership of Gandhi which many others did as well. But he never subscribed to Gandhian philosophy as is borne out in his classic political treatise, 'The Indian Struggle' where he has laid bare the fault-lines of Gandhism.

Even in the political foreground, Bose differed on numerous occasions with Gandhi, too frequent to recount here and that too, right from his days of political initiation in the tutelage of Gandhi's staunch adversary, Chittaranjan Das.

Later, on the question of dominion status advocated by Gandhi, Bose opposed him demanding complete independence.

Even later in 1938, Bose, in his famous Haripura Congress Presidential Address, charted out his non-Gandhian tentative future course of political action for the Congress in its bid to achieve independence. This led to the following year's schism when, pre-Tripuri, at Tripuri and post-Tripuri, Gandhi sank to his perfidious worst and showed his concealed violence towards his noble adversary and put paid for good to his supposed Mahatmahood. He tried every trick of the trade, that would have shamed even Machiavelli, to oust Bose not only from the Congress Presidency but from the Congress platform altogether to the nation's horrible shame at Wellington Square in Calcutta when the Congress formally expelled Bose from its organic system wholesale.

Bose was radically different always in views and revolutionary principles from that of Gandhi. When he did work under the latter, he did so out of circumstantial compulsions as I have said earlier.

After the expulsion affair Bose launched his own party, the Forward Bloc, and campaigned vigorously in his non-Gandhian style, urging the nation to prepare for the ensuing struggle for liberation that the Second World War had opened up opportunities for India lately. He was apprehended by the British after the Holwell Monument Case under the Defence of India Act. Thereafter, he was house-interned when he made his daring 'Great Escape' to Germany to restart his armed struggle with help from the Axis Powers. This was not being Gandhian.

The INA, later, through direct and indirect effect, liberated India while your great Gandhi kept watching helplessly his protege, Nehru, now even honey-trapped by Edwina Mountbatten, making common cause with the traitorous Jinnah to partition the motherland. Bose had created conditions for the territorial integrity in independence of the motherland and Gandhi-Nehru-Jinnah-Mountbatten conjointly divided the country. Satyendra Singh, you need to understand history a bit better through in-depth study before you make your rather facile comments.

P.S. : Gandhi meekly caved in to the Partition Demand of Jinnah and was quite easily persuaded by Nehru --- now eyeing the Prime Minister's portfolio --- to accept it even though he had earlier publicly stated that Partition would have to be effected over his dead body. That much for his truthfulness, resolve, integrity and ideological constancy along with patriotic commitment.

Netaji from aboard the war-field ever cautioned the Congress against all British ploys at partitioning India. But the Mahatma and his anglophile disciple paid no heed to his warnings and, when the hour of trial arrived, committed the greatest sacrilege of allowing the dismemberment of the motherland.

So much for Bose being a Gandhian which only a stubborn commitment to a myopic vision of history may subscribe to.
