Death of Subhas Chandra Bose

Death Of Subhas Chandra Bose

The Disappearance of Subhas Chandra Bose relates to the series of incidents that developed from the disappearance of Subhas Chandra Bose, the supreme commander of Azad Hind Fauj and Free India Legion, during the closing stages of the Second World War. It was announced by Japan that he died in a plane crash in Taiwan on August 18, 1945. But it has long been the subject of dispute. There have been three Government of India sponsored commissions and numerous private investigations to find out if Subhas Chandra Bose died in the plane crash. The third Indian commission that was appointed for enquiring into this concluded in its report tabled in parliament in May 2006, that the news about Bose's "death" was staged to facilitate an escape to the USSR.

Famous quotes containing the words death and/or bose:

    It is a strange, strange fate, and now, as I stand face to face with death I feel just as if they were going to kill a boy. For I feel like a boy—and my hands so free from blood and my heart always so compassionate and pitiful that I cannot comprehend how anyone wants to hang me.
    Roger Casement (1864–1916)

    A woman is a sometime thing.
    —Du Bose Heyward (1885–1940)
