Trinamool Attacks Rahul Gandhi Over Date Of Death In Netaji Tribute

The Trinamool Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leadership in West Bengal criticised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for a social media post on Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose which mentioned that the late freedom fighter had died on August 18, 1945.

Offering a tribute to the great revolutionary on his birth anniversary, Mr. Gandhi put up a photograph of Netaji on social media platform X and captioned it as “January 23, 1897 - August 18, 1945”.

However, Trinamool and BJP leaders took exception to the post and asked Mr. Gandhi to “correct it”.

“The post of Rahul Gandhi is wrong and is not acceptable. We are celebrating the birth anniversary of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. We don’t know whether the theory regarding the air crash accident of Netaji is true,” Kunal Ghosh of Trinamool Congress told media persons.
