 JUSTICE MUKHERJEE COMMISSION OF INQUIRY
The one who had gone around telling the world that Netaji had died in 1945 was found to hold deep within her heart the view that there was "an international conspiracy to keep Netaji out of India, and India was a part to that conspiracy".

It is a pity that the Commission did not, even though it had not been expressly asked to do so, try to find out who had been assaulted or arrested: this might have been of material help in determining who the plain-clothes men were who made the assault.
The Commission deals with the justification for the assault; it is stated that a Police Inspector was "assaulted by some of the Press reporters who had gathered together in a group and prevented him from arresting Sunil Sen Gupta (a reporter).
The Commission recognises that reporters and photographers were doing their duty in watching the breaking up of the banned meeting and arresting the demonstrators.

While Mukherjee refused to talk about his findings, a source in the panel said it had unearthed "no direct evidence" to suggest the revolutionary leader, popularly known as Netaji, died in a plane crash in Formosa (as Taiwan was known then) August 18, 1945.
If the Mukherjee panel does say that, it would be contrary to the findings of two earlier official committees - the Shah Nawaz Khan Commission of 1956 and the GD Khosla Commission of 1974 - that concluded that Bose did die in that airplane crash.
The Mukherjee Commission's report was submitted to the Home ministry by the secretary of the panel.

If the Mukherjee panel does say that, it would be contrary to the findings of two earlier official committees -- the Shah Nawaz Khan Commission of 1956 and the G D Khosla Commission of 1974 -- that concluded that Bose did die in that crash.
Mukherjee`s mandate is to uncover whether Bose died in any other manner than an air crash, and at any place other than Taiwan and, if so, when and how.
Should Mukherjee arrive at the conclusion that "solid evidence" of Bose`s death is wanting, it puts a question mark on the findings of the earlier commissions -- as well as the account of history as is taught to Indians.
