We were very nostalgic. We had a well-preserved view of Netaji’s life and meetings in different countries etc. We witnessed live everything we read about Netaji in textbooks.’’
Sayak Nandi, assistant director, Ministry of Tourism, said, “Under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, we have launched Yuva Tourism Clubs in every state. Currently, about 10 schools and colleges are part of this initiative and students from here will be future representatives of the country in national and international forums. Tourism is a holistic subject and also includes cultural knowledge about Indian leaders like Netaji and spaces associated with them.’’
