The chairman of Rishra Municipality, Vijay Sagar Mishra said, “It’s a matter of great joy and honor for all of us to watch the handing over ceremony of Rishra Bose House to Ramakrishna Mission Saradapitha Belur Math. Converting it to a museum will bring the common people closer to the works and activities of the great patriot Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose and Swami Vivekananda.
