Delhi, Sep 15: Justice Markandey Katju, ex-chairman, Press Council of India and former Supreme Court judge, courted controversy by issuing controversial statements on freedom fighter Netaji Subash Chandra Bose and Rabindranath Tagore, noted literateur and first Indian to win Nobel prize. Justice Katju has tweeted that Bose and Rabindranath Tagore worked for Japanese and British respectively. Katju said that he will speak against Bose and Rabindranath at the programmes to be held in Kolkata soon. He said that the nation must know this truth. According to Katju, Subash Chandra Bose was a highly ambitious person and he became a Japanese agent as neither Gandhi nor Adolf Hitler encouraged him.
