‘Two sides of same coin’: Netaji’s grandnephew quits TMC, takes swipe at BJP

‘Two sides of same coin’: Netaji’s grandnephew quits TMC, takes swipe at BJP

Chandra Kumar Bose, grandnephew of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, has resigned from the Trinamool Congress (TMC), expressing disillusionment with mainstream political parties. Bose, who joined the TMC just four months ago ahead of the West Bengal assembly elections, stated that he sees no difference between the BJP and the TMC, comparing them as two sides of the same coin.

He announced that he will mentor a proposed youth-led political platform based on Netaji's ideals, focusing on inclusive nationalism, secularism, social justice, and development. Bose, a former BJP state vice-president and Forward Bloc member, maintained that his politics is rooted in Netaji's ideology rather than party affiliation. His exit marks another shift in the political landscape, leaving the TMC without his support.
