LONDON: The only child of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose wants to bring her late father’s ashes back to India, according to one of Japan’s leading newspapers. Anita Bose Pfaff, a professor of economics based in Germany, told ‘Yomiuri Shimbun’ daily this week that she hopes the debate around the circumstances of the freedom fighter’s death can finally be laid to rest. “I want to bring back his ashes to India, which is now an independent nation. Indian independence was his (her father’s) ardent wish,” the 73-year-old is quoted as saying.
