Abstract

On the outbreak of First World War (1914-1918 A.D) India responded to the Empire’s call with a thorough zeal and will. Valuable and countless offers of military assistance, personal service and material help were made by Ruling Chiefs of India. For the first time Indians were called upon to fight in Europe in “White Man’s War. Prior to this Great War Indian forces had encountered an enemy of less military organization. Now they were pitted against military warfare on the globe, fighting in countries of various customs, suffering heavy shellfire, experiencing high explosives, fighting in modern trenches. In spite of all odds the record of performance was still amazing.
