9 February, 2024, Bengaluru: The Office of the Executive Post Graduate Programme in Management (EPGP) Seminar Committee, as part of its Seminar Series, will present two seminars on 14th February 2024.
Session 1: Anuj Dhar, author and former journalist, will deliver an address on, “Netaji's Life and ‘Death’ – Deciphering the Conundrum”, from 4 pm to 5.30 pm, at Classroom N-201 of IIMB.
About the speaker: Anuj Dhar is a prominent figure involved with demystifying the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose mystery for more than two decades. The film, ‘The Tashkent Files’ and web series, ‘Bose: Dead/Alive’ directly refer to his books. His interview on YouTube channel ‘BeerBiceps (Ranveer Allahbadia)’ has 5.3 million views, blurring the lines between research and popular culture. His 2012 book, ‘India's Biggest Cover-up’, ignited calls for declassifying Netaji's files. His subsequent co-authored book, ‘Conundrum: Subhas Bose's Life After Death’, inspired cinematic explorations like ‘Gumnaami’. As an engaging speaker, he has shared his insights at premier institutions internationally. Through relentless research and seminars, Anuj Dhar strives to uncover hidden truths about India's past.
Session 2: Chandrachur Ghose, author, will deliver an address on, ‘Unveiling the Saga of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose: His Pivotal Role in Indian Independence and Impact of INA’, from 5.30 pm to 7 pm, at Classroom N-201 of IIMB.
About the speaker: An acclaimed writer and public speaker, Chandrachur Ghose with his latest books: ‘1947-1957, India: The Birth of a Republic’ and ‘Bose: The Untold Story of an Inconvenient Nationalist’, discusses complex ideas and events that have largely remained beneath the surface of public discourse. The seminar will throw light on the transfer of power during Indian Independence, the formation of the governance machinery, the clash of ideologies among personalities such as between Mahatma Gandhi and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose who advocated armed struggle and challenged Gandhi's non-violent approach. The seminar will also discuss the impact of the Indian National Army (INA) which Netaji created with captured soldiers, fighting alongside Japan against British rule. The INA ignited national pride and challenged the perception of British invincibility.
Each talk will be followed by a Q&A session. The sessions have been designed to not only provide valuable knowledge and insights to the students, but also inspire them to strive for excellence in their future leadership roles.
The one-year fulltime MBA for working professionals offered by IIM Bangalore – EPGP – aims to nurture and empower the next generation of leaders. The student-driven seminar series strives to drive learning outside the classroom and encourage interactions with industry leaders as well as individuals from all walks of life.
