Inqaldb Zindabad Azad Hind Zindabad PREFACE The trial Of the three I N. A, Officers has caused great e*dtement in the country* It has been revealed to the common man for the fitst time that tte foreign rate in India is not all powerful and eternal The gallant deads of the men and officers of the Azad HmdFatijin the battlefields of Burma and Malaya and on the Atakan Front have set a new precedent before the country and the desire to shake oft the foreign domination has become greater in the Indian ftiind than at any other time in the history of the British connections ift India. The personality of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bosfc &nd the achievements of the Indian National Army have inspired new hopes in the rank and file of the Indian massed Major General Shahftawaz, Colonel Prem K. Sahgal and Colonel Gurbax Singh Dhilkm have become the torch*beater$ of Indians fight for freeddm and the real heroes of the people, What role 'Aid they pky in the formation an<J growth of the Indian National Army ; how the first I. N, A. was formed and dissolved ; haw did Netaji come to have the supreme command of the Azad rektifcte irf t&e Hind Fattj ; ^hat were tb$ Indian National Anby with the Nif4>oaee Fonrps; ;were they * 4 puppets" 0r men of strong determination prepared to down tlieir Bves If or tlbe liohoJUr aiid safety * ii motherland has been laid down in the pages of this book. They fought the war of India's liberation beyonl the Far Eastern frontiers of India but unfortunately failed. Had they been successful* they would have been regarded as the greatest victors of all the times. And now tjiat they have failed they are being treats i as ordinary criminals, traitors, and rebels in the British courts. But what is going to be the final verdict of history we all shall have to wait and see. Being an enterprising publisher it has always been my endeavour to present books on current political problems but the present volume is inspired by alto- gether ,a different reason. A retired judge of ths Lahore High Court in the course of his talk with me remarked : 44 I do not form judgments easily about men but my judgment about these boys is that they are above average in intellect and far above average in character. To save these officers to my mind is to save nationalism in 1 India/ Since then my desire to collect more facts about them and publish them in book form became almost irresistabk, Hence the present publication. iii These autobiographies it must be mentioned were written not for the purpose of publication. They cannot, therefore be a complete and comprehensive record of their adventures. The real es&austive story of the brave sons and daughters of India who shed their blood smilingly in the mountains and jungles of Burma and Malaya and on the battlefield of ImphaL and Kohima and continued their epic March to Delhi in the face of the greatest mechanised power of the world will be recorded only when India is a free country and when the rebels of to-day will be the real rulers of the land. The present volume is only a short though Ppignant and illuminating account of their activities. I4 jai HiacT L \HOKB : March, 1946. DURLAB SINGH 41 " To my countrymen I say' Forget not that the greatest curse for a man is to remain a slave. Forget not that the grossest crime is to compromise with injustice and wrong. Remember the eternal law you must give, if you want to get it. And remember that the highest virtue is to battle against iniquity, no matter what the cost may be* " In this mortal world, everything perishes and will perish but ideas, ideals and dreams do not. One individual may die for an idea but that idea will, after his death, incarnate itself in a thousand lives."

  • Genesis of the Indian National Army Dr
    Genesis of the Indian National Army Dr. Harkirat Singh Associate Professor, Head, Department of History, Public College, Samana (Punjab), INDIA- 147201, [email protected], 9815976415 Abstract: The efforts of Indians to promote the cause of India’s independence from abroad occupy a unique place in the history of Indian struggle for freedom. The history of the Indian National Army, under which Indian had struggled for independence of India from outside, is the great story of a revolutionary war against the British colonial Government in India, with the help of the Japanese. It was the culmination of the great struggle for Indian independence from outside the country. Though at times it encountered the difficulties, it was to leave mark of eternal glory under the very able leadership of Subhas Chandra Bose. Its genesis had interested chapter of Indian history. Keywords: Ghadar, Indian Independence League, Azad Hind Sangh, IGHQ, White Masters Introduction The genesis of the Indian National Army (INA) in East Asia is a fascinating chapter of the Indian freedom movement. During the Second World War, an army for the liberation of India, the Indian National Army was raised in South-East Asia by Gen. Mohan Singh with the help of many Indian civilians and prisoners of war. Regarding the genesis of INA, there are interesting facts which needed to be studied. In this paper an attempt has been made to explore in detail all aspects of the genesis of the INA. To write the paper primary sources, especially INA Files, have been extensively consulted. It was during the latter half of 19th century and in the beginning of 20th century that many Indians left India for greener pastures abroad.

  • Japanese Conquest of Malaya & Singapore, 1941-42
    Japanese Conquest of Malaya & Singapore, 1941-42 - By Gerald F Pillay1 Introduction Those with an historical or military bent will find this document a comprehensive reprise of the subject, perhaps even overladen with detail. Its value is that the information is not elsewhere found in one place. For the adept I have left in fascinating detail about the re-occupation of Malaya and Singapore, ie Operation Zipper and Operation Tideface, etc. The casual reader may skip much of the document, and only go by the headings. The brave will find that the following annexes provide much for additional digestion: Annex A Air Defence Deployment - 8 Dec 41 Annex B Battle Order - 8 Dec 41 Annex C Map of Japanese Invasion of Malaya 1941-42 Annex D Map of Battle of Singapore, 1942. “Malaya Command” was the term used to describe the defence sector of Malaya and Singapore under a single Commanding Officer. I keep to it for convenience. I have retained the original names of peoples, places and events for historical authenticity. This document is put together from information on the Internet. All sources are given, and are hereby acknowledged. Imperial Defence Strategy2 In the 1920s, the British Imperial geopolitical thinking evolved along the following lines. The most probable enemy in the East was Japan. The main targets to be defended were Australia, New Zealand and British Malaya. Of the last, Singapore would be the prize target. The launch base would be Japan. An air offensive was out of reach. The threat was essentially naval. And finally, distance provided insulation of about 180 days to the actual arrival of any invasion forces.

    Governing Shōnan: The Japanese Administration of Wartime Singapore Clay Eaton Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Clay Eaton All rights reserved ABSTRACT Governing Shōnan: The Japanese Administration of Wartime Singapore Clay Eaton The Japanese military administration of Southeast Asia during the Second World War was meant to rebuild the prewar colonial system in the region under strong, centralized control. Different Japanese administrators disagreed over tactics, but their shared goal was to transform the inhabitants of the region into productive members of a new imperial formation, the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. Shōnan, the wartime name for Singapore, was meant to be the center of this Co-Prosperity Sphere in Southeast Asia. It was the strategic fulcrum of the region, one of its most important ports, and a center of culture and learning for the wartime Japanese. Home to thousands of Japanese administrators during the war and a linguistically, ethnically, and religiously diverse local population, Shōnan was a site of active debates over the future of the Sphere. Three assumptions undergirded these discussions: that of Japanese preeminence within the Sphere, the suitability of “rule by minzoku (race)” for Southeast Asians, and the importance of maintaining colonial social hierarchies even as Japanese administrators attempted to put the region on a total war footing. These goals were at odds with each other, and Japanese rule only upended social hierarchies and exacerbated racial tensions. The unintended legacy of the wartime empire lay, not only in the new opportunities that Japanese rule afforded to Southeast Asian revolutionaries, but in the end of the politics of accommodation with imperial power practiced by prewar Asian elites.
