Few Historical facts about Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose.

Netaji despised mixing religion with politics, and he was against Hindu Mahasabha. He disliked Savarkar & Jinnah and he named his INA regiments after Gandhi, Nehru & Maulana Azad.

Some facts which Bhakts don't tell.

1/5
"I would request Savarkar, Jinnah & to all those who still think of a compromise with the British to realize once for all that in the world of tomorrow there will be no British Empire."

- Netaji Bose via Azad Hind Radio (1943)

Today marks the 126th birth anniversary of Netaji.
There are two more references to this quote.

1. Selected Speeches of Subhas Chandra Bose, Pg 116–117, (Publications Division, IB Ministry)

2. Netaji Collected Works, Volume 11, Pg 144

And these books are available in Google Books. Feel free to check it.

Today's front page of Express features a huge story that outlines how a foreign plantation lobby was instrumental in the dismissal of Kerala's first communist government under EMS in 1959.

The details are from a new book, based on archives from the British Library in London

1/6
A new book ‘Global Capital and Peripheral Labour’ quotes from the memoir of Col W S S Mackay, then general manager of Kanan Devan, which was a subsidiary of UK-based plantation giant James Finlay.

“It was here that EMS met his waterloo!” was how Mackay recorded in his book. 2/6
According to the book, William Roy, visiting agent of James Finlay, had met then Prime Minister Nehru, along with George Sutter, acting general manager.

“The Union Government has been convinced that the EMS government in Kerala should be dismissed.” 3/6

Sanjeev Sanyal forgot to mention a few important points.

i) The RSS & Hindu Mahasabha were sleeping during the 1946 Naval revolt. They had no role in the mutiny.

ii) Only the Communist party (CPI) & one National Leader (Aruna Asaf Ali) supported the revolt & the Indian sailors.
The RSS and Hindu Mahasabha had ZERO role in the 1930 Chittagong Armoury Raid, 1942 Quit India, 1946 Naval revolt and 1946 Telangana Peasant Uprising.

I'm sure bhakts won't argue with this historic fact.

Remembering Savitribai Phule on her 192nd birth anniversary today.

Happy Teacher's Day.

Every day, as young Savitribai walked to school, people (upper castes) would throw cow dung and mud at her. They were angry that she was teaching young girls from the ‘oppresed castes’.

1/6
In their view, the oppressed castes and women, did not deserve an education. Savitribai started carrying an extra sari to change into when she reached school.

Before going home, she would change back into the dirty sari.

2/6
By the end of 1851, the Phules' were running three schools in Pune with around 150 girl students. Soon the number of girls enrolled in Phule’s schools outnumbered that of the boys in government schools.

January 3rd should be Teacher's day, not 5th September.

This is historically FAKE.

i) The 5 permanent members of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) were decided in 1945 after the end of WW2.

ii) From 1949 to 1972, Taiwan held the permanent seat in UN Security Council. After 1972, it was given to China. Nehru died in 1964.
To say that Nehru was either consulted or had anything to do with:

- inclusion of China (before civil war) in UNSC as a permanent member in 1945 and replacement of Taiwan (ROC) by China (PRC) in 1971 is laughable.

Nehru or no other leader in NAM had such power. Even now.
And the 5 Permanent Members of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) were the five nations that defeated Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan during World war 2. These five nations were not randomly selected.

When you tell fake history, at least have some common sense.
