Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday remembered Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on his birth anniversary and said that India will always remain grateful to him for his bravery and indelible contribution to resisting colonialism.
“On 23rd January 1897, Janakinath Bose wrote in his diary, ‘A son was born at midday.’ This son became a valorous freedom fighter and thinker who devoted his life towards one great cause – India’s freedom. I refer to Netaji Bose, who we proudly remember on his Jayanti today,” Prime Minister Modi tweeted.
“India will always remain grateful to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose for his bravery and indelible contribution to resisting colonialism. He stood up for the progress and well-being of his fellow Indians,” he added.
