The Trinamool Congress on Wednesday said BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad’s claim against Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s neglecting Netaji’s memorial in Delhi is not only “factually inaccurate”, but reveals a startling “lack of understanding”.
Taking to twitter, the TMC said, ” Contrary to @BJP4India MP @rsprasad’s claims, the GoWB declared Netaji’s birth anniversary as a state holiday to honour his memory. “
” Every year, on January 23, Smt. Mamata Banerjee personally visits his statue at Maidan and offers heartfelt floral tributes, ” the party mentioned.
Furthermore, the State Government took the proactive step by declassifying 64 files related to Bose, along with 8 DVDs containing over 12,000 pages of valuable historical information, the party stated.
If anything, it is the BJP-led Central Government’s outright rejection of a proposed tableau on Netaji and the INA for the Republic Day parade in 2022, without offering any justification, that leaves many questioning their commitment to honoring the freedom fighter’s legacy, the TMC alleged.
