On Jan 23 1897, Netaji was born to Adv Janakinath Bose in Odisha's Cuttack. The little child born to Janakinath was fated to significantly mold the Indian freedom struggle and walked India towards independence after a period of 200 years of demeaning British Raj. Bose's Azad Hind Fauj is credited to initiate the freedom struggle to an advanced phase.
Unfortunately, the death of such a heroic personality continues to remain a mystery for the world. It was believed that while the leader was on his visit to Taipei in 1945, his plane crashed leading to his death, since no signs of his survival had been traced ever since the incident. Recently, in 2017, the Central govt confirmed through an RTI that the incident was entirely responsible for Bose's death.
