![]() That certain classified documents should be released under the fledgling right to information regime makes for a good news in secrecy-obsessive India, but there are no more glad tidings. The MHA had earlier said it could not provide Bose-related records, with the Union Home Secretary himself expressing fears that disclosure could lead to law and order problem in the country - especially in Bose's home state West Bengal. One note by Prime Minister Nehru will remain classified.Īfter one and half years of RTI efforts which led to a landmark Central Information Commission decision and discussions among the highest echelons of power in the country, the Ministry of Home Affairs has released to Mission Netaji 90 documents relating to the mystery surrounding the death of Subhas Chandra Bose. Records include Intelligence Bureau reports, Ministry of External Affairs' telegrams & prime ministerial correspondence. Home Ministry's "selected" release is first of its kind under RTI Act
