JAPAN-INDIA-TAIWAN-HISTORY-POLITICS-WWII-BOSE
TO GO WITH AFP STORY "Japan-India-Taiwan-history-politics-WWII-Bose,FEATURE" by Shaun Tandon
Deputy chief priest of the Renkoji temple, Kyozen Mochizuki (R) reads a sutra as Japanese followers of Subhas Chandra Bose, one of the most prominent leaders of the Indian Independence Movement against the British Raj, prays during his 62nd memorial ceremony at the Renkoji temple in Tokyo, 18 August 2007. As the priest recited prayers in Japanese under gold statues of the Buddha, mourners bowed to the urn said to hold the ashes of Subhash Chandra Bose, the Indian nationalist who has stirred as much controversy in death as in life. The cremation ground of his pacifist rival Mahatma Gandhi is a major memorial in New Delhi which foreign dignitaries visit, but Bose's purported remains lie in relative obscurity at a small Buddhist temple in Tokyo.
