On Parakram Diwas, Prime Minister Modi will virtually unveil a model of the Bose memorial in Andaman.

On Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s birthday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tribute to the independence warrior by stating, “He is profoundly impacted by his ideas.” “Today, on Parakram Diwas, I honor Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and recall his unmatched contribution to the history of India. His passionate opposition to colonial control will be remembered forever. Modi tweeted that, “deeply impacted by his ideas, we are trying to realize his vision for India.”

In observance of the 126th birth anniversary of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, the Prime Minister will dedicate a model of a proposed memorial to him on the Andaman and Nicobar Islands later in the day.

The memorial will be constructed on Ross Island, which in 2018 was called Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Dweep.

An official stated that it will feature a museum, a cable car ropeway, a laser-and-sound show, a guided heritage trail through historical buildings, and a themed children’s amusement park, in addition to a lounge. After the virtual unveiling of the model, Prime Minister Modi will address the country.

The Prime Minister will also take part in a ceremony in which 21 deserted islands in the union territory will be named after Param Vir Chakra recipients.

In the meantime, Union Home Minister Amit Shah landed in Port Blair on Sunday evening for a two-day visit to the archipelago, where he is due to attend a public gathering on the occasion of Netaji’s 126th birth anniversary and review development efforts.

Shah will likely raise the national flag and deliver a public address at Netaji Stadium, the same location where the freedom warriors raised the Tricolor on December 30, 1943.

President Droupadi Murmu also paid tribute to Netaji, describing him as one of Bharat Mata’s greatest sons. “On Parakram Diwas, we honor Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, one of the greatest sons of Bharat Mata.” Netaji epitomizes tremendous courage and patriotism. Under his leadership, millions of people joined the fight for India’s independence. “Indians will forever be in his debt,” she tweeted.

The Congress also paid Netaji several tributes. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge tweeted in Hindi, “Tributes to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, former president of the Indian National Congress, founder of the Azad Hind Fauj, and our idol, on the occasion of his 126th birthday.” Netaji’s cries of “Jai Hind” and “Tum Mujhe Khoon Do, Main Tumhe Azadi Dunga” roused everyone to true patriotism.

Rahul Gandhi tweeted, “My humble condolences to the great liberation fighter, Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, whose courage and patriotism continue to inspire every Indian to protect and preserve the freedom of our beautiful country.”

The Congress tweeted, “Millions of salutations on the birth anniversary of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, a great leader of the liberation fight who fired the spirit of freedom in the hearts of crores of Indians by coining the slogan “Tum Mujhe Khoon Do, Main Tumhe Azadi Dunga”.”
