Press Statement August 2019- PRESS STATEMENT FROM THE MAJORITY MEMBERS OF THE BOSE FAMILY :
THE FAMILY OF NETAJI SUBHAS CHANDRA BOSE HAS DEMANDED AN END TO A MISLEADING AND DEFAMATORY CAMPAIGN TO MALIGN THE IMAGE AND LEGACY OF THE LEGENDARY LEADER.
THIS NOW LONG-RUNNING AND SINISTER CAMPAIGN IS BEING ORGANISED BY DELHI-BASED PRIVATE ORGANISATION MISSION NETAJI, LED BY ANUJ DHAR AND CHANDRACHUR GHOSE. IT FEATURES A PENNILESS RECLUSE KNOWN AS GUMNAMI BABA, WHO LEFT BEHIND TRUNK LOADS OF NETAJI-RELATED FAKE COLLECTIBLES. HE LIVED IN VARIOUS LOCATIONS IN UTTAR PRADESH IN HIDING FOR THREE DECADES AND REPORTEDLY FLED WHENEVER THERE WAS ANY CHANCE OF DISCOVERY. HIS LAST YEARS WERE SPENT IN FAIZABAD NEAR AYODHYA IN A HUMBLE ONE-ROOM OUTHOUSE, ALWAYS BEHIND A CURTAIN WITH HIS FACE COVERED. HE SUPPOSEDLY DIED IN SEPTEMBER 1985.
WITHOUT AN IDENTITY AND WITHOUT A PASSPORT, THIS NAMELESS MAN IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE TRAVELLED IN AND OUT OF INDIA! NO KNOWN PHOTOGRAPHS OF THIS MAN EXIST.
THIS IS THE PERSON THAT MISSION NETAJI INSISTS, THROUGH THEIR CAMPAIGN OF ALLUSION, SUGGESTIVENESS, MISREPRESENTATION AND LIES, WAS NETAJI IN DISGUISE!
CENTRAL TO THIS OUTRAGEOUS HOAX IS A PHOTOGRAPH OF NETAJI, DOCTORED TO REPRESENT AN AGING GUMNAMI BABA WITH A GREY BEARD. THIS FAKE HAS BEEN WIDELY DISPLAYED SIDE BY SIDE WITH AN ACTUAL PHOTOGRAPH OF NETAJI.
SHAKTI SINGH, OWNER OF THE RESIDENTIAL COMPOUND IN FAIZABAD IS A KEY PERPETRATOR OF THE HOAX.
THE JUSTICE MUKHERJEE COMMISSION OF INQUIRY OF 2005 PROVIDED CONCLUSIVE PROOF THROUGH DNA TESTING AT THE RESPECTED CENTRAL FORENSIC SCIENCE LABORATORY IN KOLKATA, THAT THERE WAS NO MATCH BETWEEN NETAJI AND THIS GUMNAMI BABA. HAND-WRITING COMPARISONS CARRIED OUT AT THE SAME KOLKATA LABORATORY AND THE OFFICE OF THE GOVERNMENT EXAMINER OF QUESTIONED DOCUMENTS IN SIMLA, DELIVERED A SIMILAR, NEGATIVE OUTCOME.
DOCUMENTS, PHOTOGRAPHS AND PERSONAL ITEMS SUGGESTIVE OF NETAJI FOUND AMONG THE BELONGINGS OF GUMNAMI BABA, WERE PROVIDED ON REQUEST BY PERSONS SUCH AS BIJOY NAG OF JAYASREE PRAKASHAN IN KOLKATA, WHO HAS ADMITTED TO DOING SO.
THE BOSE FAMILY DEMANDS THAT SUCH DEFAMATION AND DENIGRATION OF NETAJI SUBHAS CHANDRA BOSE CEASE FORTHWITH.
