HISTORY
SOURCE A
We must say that today, behind the ranks of one of the finest armies in the world, there are
millions of Indian people, ready to cooperate with the British government in defence of an
Empire to which we are proud to belong. In the presence of a common enemy, be it Germany
or anyone else, we set aside our differences. India has always been loyal. Our future
development in terms of prosperity and the recognition of our rights as citizens depends on our
loyalty now in Britain’s hour of need.
Adapted from an editorial in the Calcutta Bengali newspaper commenting on India’s entry
into the First World War, 1914
