Jabalpur witnessed a poignant tribute to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose as CM Mohan Yadav, fresh from international duties, addressed a centenary event at the Siddhi Bala Bose Library. Declaring Bose’s extraordinary life an eternal guide, Yadav stressed how his rallying cry for blood in exchange for freedom still awakens fervor nationwide.
The ceremony on Vasant Panchami amplified its joy, with blessings from Goddess Saraswati invoked for wisdom and prosperity. Yadav unveiled an imposing 11-foot Dhoulpur memorial dedicated to a century of Bengali cultural excellence and an 8-foot statue capturing Netaji’s indomitable spirit.
He lauded the City Bengali Club’s unwavering efforts in nurturing literature, traditions, and language, proudly recalling Netaji’s visit as a badge of honor for the state. These installations, he affirmed, will perpetually inspire courage and commitment among the populace.
Joined by Union Health Minister JP Nadda and fellow leaders, the post-Davos homecoming of Yadav symbolized seamless integration of global outreach with local heritage. The occasion reaffirmed Madhya Pradesh’s resolve to immortalize freedom fighters, ensuring their sacrifices propel the nation’s progress.
