This book tells the unvarnished stories about the legendary Gorkha soldires who joined the Indian National Army (INA) or the Azad Hind Fauz of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in the Second World War. It gives a vivid account of the war as to how the redoubtable Gorkhas, in alliance with the Japanese, fought against the British army in the Arakan hills and laid down their precious lives for the sake of India‘s liberation from the colonial rule.
This also speaks about India‘s freedom movement and the role played by the civilian Indian Gorkhas living in various parts of India, such as Darjeeling, Calcutta, Benares, DehraDun and the North Eastern States in the freedom struggle under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi.
The supreme sacrifice of lives made by 22 young Gorkha jawans in the Kargil War of 1999 will go down the history of liberation of Kashmir from Pakistan‘s illegal occupation. This book is a humble attempt at focusing on the valuable contributions made by the Indian Gorkhas for the cause of India, whom they love as their own country.
