Kolkata, Jan 21 (PTI) Amidst the fanfare over RSS' plans to celebrate Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose's birth anniversary in the city on January 23, his daughter Anita Bose-Pfaff has said that the organisation's ideology and the nationalist leader's ideas of secularism and inclusiveness are "poles apart and do not coincide".

She agreed that the fanfare over the celebration of her father's birth anniversary is to "partially serve their (BJP, RSS) own interests".

As far as ideology is concerned, the Congress has a lot more in common with Netaji than any other party in the country, she said.
