Death of Subhas Chandra Bose - G. D. Khosla Commission

G. D. Khosla Commission

The G. D. Khosla Commission of Inquiry was set up during the tenure of Indira Gandhi to probe the disappearance of Bose. The commission concluded that Bose died in the plane crash. The report was accepted by the Indian government. Later, following the protests of M. P. s during the tenure of Morarji Desai, the government trashed both reports. Desai observed that "The Shah Nawaz Committee and the Khosla Commission hold the report of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's death following a plane crash as true. Since then, reasonable doubts have been cast on the correctness in the two reports and various important contradictions in the testimony of the witnesses have been noticed. Some further contemporary official documentary records have also become available. In the light of those doubts and contradictions and those records, government finds it difficult to accept that the earlier conclusions are decisive."

Famous quotes containing the word commission:

    It is impossible to calculate the moral mischief, if I may so express it, that mental lying has produced in society. When a man has so far corrupted and prostituted the chastity of his mind as to subscribe his professional belief to things he does not believe he has prepared himself for the commission of every other crime.
    Thomas Paine (1737–1809)
