Does NRB truly qualify to be labelled a research bureau? What research has it done on the disappearance issue beyond going by governmental pronouncements in such? What is its credibility when it yet holds on to the aircrash theory despite research revealing the utter hollowness of the claim?
Why does NRB exhibit such an antipathy to any discussion on the disappearance issue? Does it behove a research bureau to behave thus? Why does it not produce the purported original letter Subhas Bose had written to Sarat Bose, uncharacteristically in Bengali, informing him that he had married and had fathered a daughter? How about establishing the authenticity of the Sisir-Ashoke Bose related Great Escape story?
All these unresolved issues ought to be within the purview of research of a bureau dedicated to such, ought it not?
Why not allow Netaji researchers like Drjayanta Choudhuri, Madhusudan Pal, Keshab Bhattacherjee and the like, access to all archival material of NRB for unravelling of the many truths that have thus far been kept under cover or been distorted and propagated?
Can NRB answer all these questions and justify duly its name?
