The 'remains' preserved in Japan’s Renko-ji temple are said to belong to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. His descendant, Chandra Bose, has written to President Droupadi Murmu, requesting her to take initiative in bringing the remains back to India. If Chandra Bose’s claims are true, it would support the theory that Bose died in a plane crash on August 18, 1945.
