EDITORS COMMENTS
The Illustrated London News: Recognizing Indian Patriotism in the Trenches of World War I (1917) Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, the spirit of patriotism transcended geographical boundaries and racial divides. In this poignant full-page article from The Illustrated London News, published in 1917, we witness the unwavering dedication of Indian soldiers who answered the call to serve the British Empire in its hour of need. Featured in the photograph are five distinguished Indian soldiers, embodying the diverse tapestry of the Indian subcontinent. Shiva D. L. Agarwala, G.V. Utam Singh, Gurbuchan Singh, Jemadar Arjan Singh, and Lt. Col. C. R. Bakhle stand proudly in their military uniforms, their faces etched with determination and resolve. The Indian soldiers, hailing from various regions and religious backgrounds, were an integral part of the British Indian Army. They bravely fought alongside their British counterparts on the Western Front, the Middle East, and other theaters of war. Their contributions were pivotal in the eventual Allied victory, yet their stories have often been overshadowed by the dominant narrative of the war. This powerful image serves as a testament to the patriotic spirit of these Indian soldiers, who put aside their differences and united under the banner of the British Empire to defend the values of freedom and justice. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the shared history between India and the United Kingdom, and the sacrifices made by Indian soldiers during the First World War. The photograph, taken in 1917, is a significant historical artifact that sheds light on the often-forgotten role of Indian soldiers in the Great War. It is a powerful reminder of the enduring bonds of friendship and cooperation that have existed between India and the United Kingdom for over two centuries.
