Abstract
This chapter has two essential foci. The first relates to the British Indian army (which included people from what are now Bangladesh, India, Nepal, and Pakistan) and its deployments in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, together with a discussion of Subhas Chandra Bose and the Indian National Army. The second addresses the war in British India. Combat areas include the Indian Ocean, the Bay of Bengal, and the northeast of India where the Battle of Imphal-Kohima took place. India also served as a source for the production of war materials and as a base for American and British forces operating in China and southeast Asia. The chapter also includes a discussion of significant issues such as the Quit India Movement and the Bengal famine of 1943.
