LEGACY OF FREEDOM

- Kajal Chatterjee Kolkata

MAY 25 was the 129th birth anniversar­y of great Indian revolution­ary Rashbehari Bose. While the Modi government has made it a policy to honour forgotten heroes of the freedom movement, Bose’s sacrifice while trying to liberate India from British imperialis­m has been forgotten. He played a major role in the Ghadar Revolution in 1915 and left India for Japan to lobby for support for India’s struggle for freedom. It is time independen­t India remembered all its heroes.
