Tribute to Netaji from an INA soldier’s family

Artist Trikaripur Raveendran giving final touches to the statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, which is nearing completion at Trikaripur, Kasaragod.

He was running a small hotel in Malaysia when N. Kunhiraman, inspired by the call of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, joined the Indian National Army (INA).Though he died in 2009, his heroic stories about Netaji and the INA always stayed with his son K. Sudhakaran, a former Principal of Kannur Government Medical College, and family members who grew up listening to it.

Now, a 12-foot-tall statue of Netaji is nearing completion on the premises of the residence of Dr. Sudhakaran at Trikaripur in Kasaragod on the occasion of Netaji’s 125th birth anniversary which was celebrated on Sunday.
