With the tittle-tattle around Bharat Ratna to be conferred on Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, a majority of his family members disapproved of the idea and decided not to accept it. Netaji's grandnephew Chandra Kumar Bose said, “Netaji has been missing since 1945. When you award him with Bharat Ratna posthumously, you have to say when he died, but where is the evidence?
