Netaji's family members to meet PM tomorrow

October 13, 2015 18:54

Family members of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi here tomorrow when they are expected to seek declassification of all the files related to the leader whose mysterious

disappearance 70 years ago continues to be a talking point.

"The prime minister will meet the family members of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose tomorrow - October 14th, 2015," a PMO statement said.

He will receive Netaji's family members at 7, Race Course Road, the official residence of the prime minister, tomorrow evening, the statement added.

Modi had said in his monthly 'Mann Ki Baat' radio programme last month that he would be receiving over 50 members of Netaji's family members at his residence in October.

"Over 50 members of Subhas babu's family, from various countries, will be coming... I am happy to welcome them," Modi had said.

Describing it as a momentous occasion for him, he had said that it would perhaps be the first time that the family members of Netaji would be together visiting the prime minister's residence.
