Alipurduar (WB), Jan 23 (PTI) West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Thursday said Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose was a victim of a major conspiracy and lamented that even after so many years, the country was yet to uncover the mystery behind the disappearance of the great leader.

"I feel so sad that though we know Netaji's birthday, even after so many years, we are still in the dark about his disappearance...when and how he died. He is a victim of a major controversy. How many battles he fought for the country, but we still are clueless about where he was lost," Banerjee said.
