Kolkata: The Azad Hind People’s Mission (AHPM) has been formally launched with the objective of uniting Subhasist individuals and organisations across the country to collectively pursue truth and historical justice regarding the disappearance of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. The Mission seeks to collaborate with various groups without compromising their independent identities, creating a broad-based national platform dedicated to fact-finding and awareness.
AHPM aims to generate nationwide awareness and sensitisation on issues related to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, whose disappearance continues to remain surrounded by controversy, speculation and misinformation. The Mission has categorically rejected the widely propagated plane crash theory of August 18, 1945, at Taihoku (now Taipei), Formosa, describing it as unproven and misleading.
The organisation pointed out that the Justice Manoj Kumar Mukherjee Commission of Inquiry had clearly rejected the plane crash theory, and that several facts and pieces of evidence indicate that Netaji may have been alive even after the said date. AHPM asserted that continuing to present this disputed narrative as an established historical fact is unjustified and must be stopped.
In this context, AHPM has also questioned the claim that the ashes preserved at Renkoji Temple in Japan belong to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. The Mission stated that if Netaji did not die in the alleged plane crash, the origin and authenticity of these ashes become highly doubtful. It alleged that certain individuals and groups, driven by vested interests, have deliberately misled the people of India by promoting fabricated narratives and suppressing crucial facts related to Netaji’s whereabouts.
The Azad Hind People’s Mission has demanded that the Government of India complete and act upon the proceedings and findings of the Justice M.K. Mukherjee Commission and place the full truth before the nation. According to the Mission, this is a long-standing demand of millions of Netaji’s followers who seek transparency, honesty and national accountability on the issue.
As part of its nationwide initiative, AHPM announced plans to organise awareness campaigns, sensitisation programmes, seminars, question-and-answer sessions, rallies and public meetings across India. These activities aim to educate citizens and encourage informed public discourse on one of the most unresolved chapters of India’s freedom struggle.
The Mission has already submitted a detailed petition containing ten specific demands to the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India. To ensure these demands are addressed, AHPM said it will actively build networks across the country and mobilise public support.
Reiterating its resolve, the Azad Hind People’s Mission affirmed its commitment to truth, national dignity and justice for Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, vowing to continue its efforts until historical clarity is achieved.
