Military Reform Movement

The Military Reform Movement was a series of efforts in the late 19th and early 20th centuries aimed at modernizing and strengthening India's armed forces under British colonial rule. It sought to improve military training, logistics, and organizational structures, often driven by Indian army officers and reformers who called for better governance and professionalism within the military. The movement also emphasized national pride and the need for a more effective defense system. While it aimed to address existing weaknesses, it also fostered increasing Indian participation and aspirations for greater autonomy within the military framework.
