In a condolence message to his wife Rita Manchanda, NSF president Medovi Rhi described Bose as a visionary documentary filmmaker, human rights defender, and relentless advocate for justice and peace. “We extend our heartfelt condolences to you and your family during this time of profound grief,” the NSF said.

It said the Naga people will remember Bose for his unwavering support for “our right to self-determination”.

The NSF also said for communities that bore the brunt of jingoistic nationalism and militarisation, he was more than an ally — he was a friend, a guide, and a source of immense support.

“In a world where many turned a blind eye, he chose to listen, amplify our voices, and fight for our cause. His courage and commitment to justice left an indelible mark on our journey, and his legacy will continue to inspire generations to come,” the message read.

It said Bose dedicated his life to standing against injustice, violence, and inequality and that his unwavering commitment to the cause of human rights and his fearless voice against oppression resonated across South Asia and beyond.

The NSF added that as a filmmaker, activist, and intellectual, he was part of a collective of scientists, journalists, and artists who sought to uphold the rationalist ideals of the governing principles and challenge the historical and contemporary forms of subjugation.

It prayed for the eternal peace of the departed soul and to give strength to his loved ones in this hour of grief.
