Chandra Kumar Bose, grandnephew of freedom fighter Subhas Chandra Bose, has termed joining the BJP a 'historic mistake'. He alleged that the party's sole objective is to create division and polarisation among voters for electoral gains.
Bose, who joined the BJP in 2016, resigned in 2023 citing a lack of support for his ideological and strategic vision within the party.
He expressed disappointment that his efforts to establish an 'Azad Hind Morcha' within the party to unite people beyond religion, caste, and creed received no backing from the party leadership.
Bose also revealed that his detailed proposals, including a Bengal-specific outreach strategy, were ignored.
He called for unity across communities to counter divisive politics and defeat the forces bent on destroying the country.
