New Delhi: The All India Forward Bloc (AIFB) today welcomed the declassification of 100 files relating to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and said the government must dig out details behind his disappearance.
AIFB, formed by Netaji himself, also asked the Centre to announce the exact number of files in its possession relating to the leader and sought formation of an expert panel to declassify the documents instead of government officials doing the job.
"We welcome the move. But we want to know what had happened to Netaji. The MK Mukherjee Commission of Inquiry had emphatically proved that there was no plane accident involving Netaji on the basis of documents receive from Taiwan Government. Then what happened to him?" said AIFB secretary G Devarajan.
Mr Devarajan asked the Centre to announce the "exact" number of files in its possession relating to the leader and also sought constitution of an expert panel to declassify the documents.
Meanwhile, 'Netaji Bhavan', which will serve as AIFB headquarters, was inaugurated in the national capital today.
"We had demanded of the government to construct a building in Netaji's name, but the same went unheeded. So, we constructed the building on our own. This building will work as party headquarters and a centre of research relating to Netaji," Mr Devarajan said.
