Prime Minister Narendra Modi today released digital copies of 100 files related to Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on his 119th birth anniversary.
"Today (Saturday) is a special day for all the Indians. Declassification of Netaji files starts on Saturday. Will go to National Archives myself for the same," Modi said in a tweet.
In another tweet, Modi said: "Remembering Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose on his birth anniversary. His bravery and patriotism endears him to several Indians across generations."
The Prime Minister had in his meeting with members of the Bose family in October last year announced that the government would declassify the files relating to the leader whose disappearance 70 years ago remains a mystery.
The National Archives received 990 declassified files pertaining to the Indian National Army (INA) from the defence ministry in 1997.
Netaji, one of the leading lights of the Indian freedom struggle, set up the INA during World War II to take on the British Indian Army.
