Prime Minister Narendra Modi while unveiling the hologram statue of Netaji at India Gate on Sunday said, “Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose refused to bow before the British. His statue will inspire democratic values and future generations.”
PM also said that the grand statue of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose who has established an independent government in India, is being installed in digital form near India Gate and soon this hologram statue will be replaced by a big granite statue.
