INA (Indian National Army)

The Indian National Army (INA) was a military force formed during World War II to fight for India's independence from British rule. Led by Subhas Chandra Bose, the INA aimed to unite Indians to resist colonial rule, collaborating with Axis powers like Japan. Established in 1942, it garnered support from Indian expatriates and sought to rally troops against the British. Although the INA faced defeat and disbandment after the war, it played a crucial role in inspiring the Indian independence movement and highlighting the desire for self-determination among Indians. Its legacy continues to resonate in India's history.
