WHO, ALAS, IS NETAJI'S OWN ONE THAT CARES?


WHO, ALAS, IS NETAJI'S OWN ONE THAT CARES?


One  will not follow the ideals of Netaji, will not in accordance live a noble life of service and sacrifice, will only bask in his reflected glory by dint of familial relation and periodically appear on television channels to mock-thunder his message -- can one rightfully profess oneself thus to be worthy successor to the leonine soul? If kith and kin are so disposed, then how much may one expect from the lay public or from the government? One will deftly make use of the name 'Netaji' but will not care to work for him, live by his ideals or lead a selfless life. These are deemed unnecessary it seems. Had it not been for such apathy, could such historical injustice have been dealt on Netaji for so long? It's been betrayal everywhere.
