Kolkata : West Bengal Governor C.V. Ananda Bose on Tuesday said that there has been a deliberate attempt in the past to remove the contributions and the role of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in India’s freedom movement.

“I am saying as responsible Governor that in the past there was a definite and deliberate attempt to remove Netaji’s role in the freedom movement from the pages of history,” the Governor said on the occasion of the 127th birth anniversary of the legendary Indian freedom fighter.
