Parakram Diwas: The enigma of Gumnami Baba lives on...
Rarely ever in history has the enigma of a leader lived on for more than half a century after his demise. Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose may have "died" in an air crash in August 1945, but for those who believe in him, he lives on and on as the ellusive "Gumnami Baba".
Gumnami, in Hindi, means anonymity.
Gumnami Baba -- whom many believe was actually Netaji (Bose) lived in the guise of a sadhu at several places in Uttar Pradesh, including Naimisharanya (Nimsar), Basti, Ayodhya and Faizabad.
He kept changing his place of abode, mostly within the city itself.
