NETAJI : living dangerously / - First edition. - New Delhi Paranjoy Guha Thakurta 2016/01/01 - 184

Did Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose die in an air crash in Taihoku(Taipei, Taiwan) on 18 August 1945? was he sent off to Siberia by Joseph Stalin ? Did he die there ? Or did he escape ? Or was he let off, eventually to make his way back to India? Was he the mysterious Gumnami Baba of Faizabab, Uttar Pradesh ? If so, how did he find his way back ? Why did Bose leave India when he did ? Was it on account of his political approach, which was opposed by the then high command of the Congress party that wanted a quick transfer of power from the British ?

The past comes alive as journalist and author Kingshuk Nag seeks answers to these and related questions at a time when there is a considerable renewal of interest in Netaji's fate, what with old records tumbling out, the latest being the declassification of sixty-four files on the subject by the West Bengal government. Will the Union government make public the records that it holds, as has been stated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi ? Will the governments in Moscow and London be approached for new leads?
