ITANAGAR: Arunachal Pradesh Governor Brigadier (Retired) Dr BD Mishra on Friday wished the people of the State on the eve of Parakram Diwas which commemorates the birth anniversary of Subhash Chandra Bose.

The Governor expressed his hope that the special occasion inspires all to reinforce the eternal spirit of nationalism and patriotism.

Dr Mishra in his message said that Netaji was the most prominent leader during the struggle for the freedom of the century. He was an 'action nationalist' whose defiant patriotism made him one of the greatest Indian freedom fighters. He was a great military leader, a superb combat Force organiser and a battle field motivator.

On his 125th birth anniversary, the Governor urged upon the people to imbibe his famous words, 'It is blood alone that can pay the price of freedom. Give me blood and I will give you freedom' and 'Men, money and material cannot by themselves bring victory or freedom.

"We must have the motive-power that will inspire us to brave deeds and heroic exploits. I am sanguine that our youth today will be inspired by these famous words of Netaji and move forward to contribute positively in the process of Nation Building," he said.

"I call upon all my beloved people of the State to emulate the spirit and values of Subhash Chandra Bose to realize his dream of progressive, prosperous and self-reliant Bharat," the Governor added in his message.
