I agree: there's nothing wrong with the plan.
The following was written by Dr. Savita Singh:
"Mahatma Gandhiji is revered in India as the Father of the Nation.
Much before the Constitution of Free India conferred the title of the
Father of the Nation upon the Mahatma, it was Netaji Subhash Chandra
Bose who first addressed him as such in his condolence message to the
Mahatma on the demise of Kasturba.
"Ba and Bapu had been interned at Aga Khan Palace, Pune in the wake
of the Quit India Movement. It was while serving the prison term
Kasturba passed away on 22 February, 1944.
"Concerned about Gandhiji, Netaji sent the following message to the
Mahatma on Azad Hind Radio, Rangoon on 4th June, 1944.
"'...........Nobody would be more happy than ourselves if by any
chance our countrymen at home should succeed in liberating themselves
through their own efforts or by any chance, the British Government
accepts your "Quit India" resolution and gives effect to it. We are,
however proceeding on the assumption that neither of the above is
possible and that a struggle is inevitable. Father of our Nation in
this holy war for India's liberation, we ask for your blessings and
good wishes.'
"The above message also proves beyond any doubt Netaji's reverence
and warm feelings towards Gandhiji whom he had addressed as 'The
Father of the Nation'
"There have been many queries as to how could Gandhi be called the
Father of an ancient civilization like ours. No one is questioning
the antiquity of this ancient land. But India, that is Bharat as we
know today that has emerged out of an old civilization is a recent
phenomenon. This multicultural multi-ethnic country became a Nation-
State owing allegiance to one Constitution, one flag and one
Government only on 15 August, 1947. Mahatma Gandhi crystallized about
him the living forces of the soil. So it seemed to a vast millions of
Indians, and who saw a Father figure in him and whose 'Bapu' he was."
