A STEP AHEAD OF HIS ADVERSARY

What a valiant soul, ah, what a patriot! Going to the ends of the earth to shake hands with his enemy's enemy in his bid to extricate his motherland from the clutches of colonial control.

Gandhi, Nehru, Patel, Prasad, Pant --- they all collectively contrived against his plans for freedom, foiled him at every step but could not prevent him from achieving his goal. He hoodwinked the British intelligence to stage his epic escape from the country and essayed his way across the mountains and the seas to arrive once more with an army knocking on the doors of India and liberating its north-eastern frontier from British control to set up the stage for the domino-effect that would evict the imperialist from the motherland.

India became free but the hero of her liberation simply vanished into thin air. Where did he disappear? Do you know? I do not. So, please tell me.
