Inhaltsangabe

This book records the history of the Indianization of the Armed Forces of the colonial British Indian Army. There was a very long history with regard to this matter. Various problems and challenges were there given the different culture, ethnicity, and tradition of the Indian troops. The British were very cautious in Indianizing the native troops. Their imperial interest was the foremost thing. The East India company did the same thing while the crown's rule also did not alter the British imperial interests. While fulfilling their interest, the British simultaneously took some policies, made some changes, went for modifications, implemented rules and regulations to make the colonial army more purpose- oriented, fulfilling their long term wishes in real. However, after the Second World war, the British came to understand that their imperial interest in India was about to end given the process of decolonisation in priority. The process of Indianization took a upside surge at the end of Second World war which culminated to the Independence of India. This book covers the timeline of the colonial period, beginning from the rule of East India company to the end of British Raj in India.
