Note Tripuri

When Nehru, Patel and other Congress leaders were meeting in Tripuri in 1939 to designate posts, Subhas (the Congress President) was in Calcutta with an extremely high fever. Realising that his absence from the Congress would be misinterpreted by the Congress leaders, Subhas insisted on attending. He was carried by stretcher to the train to Tripuri. Here he is pictured inside the train with his most affectionate elder brother Sarat Chandra.
