Khosla Commission Witness Spoke of Netaji's Entering Russia
"Shyam Lal Jain, the confidential secretary of Asaf Ali, who was the secretary to INA Defence Committee told the Khosla Commission under oath that on 26 or 27 December 1945 he was summoned to Ali's residence by Nehru. Jain alleged that Pandit Nehru had asked him make typed copies of a hand- written note that said Bose had reached Russia via Diren. He also alleged that Pandit Nehru asked him to type a letter to British Prime Minister Atlee, that " Bose, your war criminal, has been allowed to enter Russian territory by Stalin. This is a clear treachery and betrayal of faith by Russians, as Russia has been an ally of the British-Americans. Please take note of it and do what you consider proper and fit." Though this information was not challenged before the Commission, Justice Khosla chose not to attach any importance to it. One wonders why."
An Indian Ambassador was allowed to meet Bose -- on the condition that he would not try to speak to him. When the Ambassador wondered about what to do in case Bose wished to speak to him, "he was told that it has been taken care of," … A rather ominous bit of hospitality. -- Reported in Hindustan Times dated 4 March 2001.
"But when a well-known researcher contacted Mikhael Gorbachev, the former premier evaded a direct answer, and is alleged to have said it was up to both governments (Russia and India) to solve the issue once and for all.A former head of the Foreign Security Service (the old KGB) has indicated to a prominent researcher that files in Russian archives do contain detailed information -- but the onus is on the Indian Government to show more interest."

MHRD speaks of Govt decision on IIEST / IISET
MHRD press release of April 10, 2007 says:
"We have also decided, in principle, to provide assistance towards upgradation of 5 Engineering Colleges to the level of an IIT, and name them as Indian Institutes of Science and Engineering Technology, subject to the concurrence of the concerned State Governments to hand them over to Central Government for declaring them as Institutes of National Importance."
Points to be noted:
1. MHRD considers Indian Institutes of Science and Engineering Technology (IISET) instead of Indian Institutes of Engineering Science and Technology (IIEST). Perhaps this is because because of XI plan's stress on Sc Education.
2. ITBHU being under centre itself, may be readily converted to IISET. Perhaps AP will concur in no time. CUSAT has long been posing itself as would-be IIEST (but what Kerala govt will now negotiate is unknown). So IISET will hopefully start to function soon with at least three institutes. Can WB then be far behind in giving concurrence?
3. 2007-08 budget keeps allocations for the 3 new IITs, 1 new IISER and another new IIM. But no provision for IISET/IIEST funding in budget. However, XI plan Working Group Report on Higher Education does have provision of Rs 2100 Cr for 'Upgradation of 5 Technological Institutes'.
