My article in @thewire_in on Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose from last year. Sharing it on the birth anniversary of Netaji.
May like to see.

Bose’s work on the Hindu-Muslim unity was such that it frustrated Vinayak Savarkar, the founder of Hindutva, who said that “Bose did not differ very much from Mahatma Gandhi, except that he went further to woo the Muslims.”

I have written this forty two page booklet on the role of the communists in India's freedom struggle. The aim is to show what the red flag did for the independence of the tricolour. It is priced at Rs 60. To get your copies please contact @imVivekSh , friend and comrade.
To accept a hero and worship him has become its principal duty. Under it, news gives place to sensation, reasoned opinion to unreasoning passion, appeal to the minds of responsible people to appeal to the emotions of the irresponsible.
Journalism in India was once a profession. It has now become a trade.
It has no more moral function than the manufacture of soap. It does not regard itself as the responsible adviser of the Public.
(BAWS, Vol. 1, P. 227)
बेशर्मी देखो!
इनके पूर्व-चायवाले, पूर्व-भिखारी, पूर्णकालिक बहुरूपिये नेताजी दस लाख का सूट पहनते हैं. डेढ़ लाख का चश्मा और लाख रुपये का पेन रखते हैं.
महंगाई और बेरोज़गारी से देश को नंगा कर ही दिया है. अब इनकी इच्छा है कि राहुल गांधी भी नंगा घूमे.

The so-called ‘fringe elements’ were the official spokespersons of the ruling party in India.
What they said is not different from the RSS narrative of demonising minorities, which is going on since 1925.
Is the government declaring RSS a fringe organisation?

Last 8 years have taken heavy toll on our foundational values of secularism & welfare state. Our social fabric is strained. Attacks on Dalits & women have increased.
Last 8 years have been an unending saga of broken promises.
Still, no shame?
Then #ShameOnYou!

Prof. #PrabhatPatnaik has summed the #Budget2022 as oblivious to the reality. He says that the budget has ignored the poor.
GoI fiscal policy is perverse and inhumane which is hurting the poor most leading to an absence of demand in the economy.

Well researched and argued piece by Vivek Sharma
@NarendraModi's Portrayal of #Netaji as a Hindu Militarist Does the Secular, Socialist Bose a Disservice

My article in TheWire on #NetajiSubhasChandraBose’s Secular, Socialist and Democratic Legacy.
Highlight solely his military part while neglecting his work for Hindu-Muslim unity and socialism is misrepresenting his life and work.

@vinay_biyani Thanks for reading Mr. Vinay.
I certainly don’t have any problem with remembering freedom fighters. The issue here is fracturing their legacies by trying to highlight some part and obliterating the other. We owe it to Netaji that at least he be remembered for who he was. Thanks.
