Netaji’s Grand-Nephew Joins BJP in the Presence of Amit Shah
Shah handed over the BJP flag to Bose at a public rally amid cries of “Bharat mata ki jai”.
Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose’s grandnephew Chandra Kumar Bose on Monday joined the BJP in the presence of party president Amit Shah.
Chandra Kumar Bose is the grandson of Netaji’s elder brother Sarat Chandra Bose.
Shah handed over the BJP flag to Bose at a public rally amid cries of “Bharat mata ki jai”.
Fifty-five-year-old Chandra Bose, son of Amiya Nath Bose, is the convener of The Open Platform for Netaji, a forum of family members and historians, which has, for decades, campaigned for the declassification of files related to the revolutionary leader.
Bose, who studied Economics at Hendon College, London, pitched his lot with the BJP two days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi declassified 100 files related to Netaji on January 23.
