This was the meeting based on which Savarkar claimed in his book 'Tejasvi Tare' in 1950s that he suggested Netaji to leave country and carry out armed struggle against British. 1/7 
I think this was the first attempt of apportionment of icons. Netaji nowhere mentioned any influence of Savarkar in his decision to leave country 2/7
In fact the meeting happened on the behest of another leader, Mohammad Ali Jinnah!
Netaji mentioned about the meeting in his writings expressing frustration. 3/7
