RSS Celebrating Netaji's Birthday To 'Partially Exploit' Legacy: Daughter

RSS's ideology and the nationalist leader's ideas of secularism and inclusiveness are "poles apart and do not coincide", she said.

Amidst the fanfare over Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh's plans to celebrate Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's birth anniversary in the city on January 23, his daughter Anita Bose-Pfaff has said that it is being done to "partially exploit" her father's legacy.

RSS's ideology and the nationalist leader's ideas of secularism and inclusiveness are "poles apart and do not coincide", she said.

As far as ideology is concerned, the Congress has a lot more in common with Netaji than any other party in the country, Ms Bose-Pfaff said.

RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat will address a public programme at Shahid Minar ground in the city to commemorate Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's birth anniversary.
