EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection showcases a significant moment in history, capturing the essence of costume, politics, and India during World War One. The image features Baddar Din, an esteemed leader of the 6th Battalion RSR, alongside other prominent chiefs. Dressed in traditional attire that reflects their rich cultural heritage, these chiefs exude both power and pride. Their intricate costumes serve as a visual testament to their status within their communities and highlight the diverse tapestry of Indian society during this tumultuous period. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph also offers valuable insights into the political landscape of India at that time. It provides a glimpse into how local leaders collaborated with British forces like the Royal Sussex Regiment to navigate through the challenges brought about by World War One. The presence of Baddar Din suggests his influential role in bridging divides between different factions and fostering cooperation for a common cause. His leadership skills were crucial not only for maintaining order but also for ensuring effective communication between various groups involved in military efforts. Preserved by West Sussex County Council's Record Office, this remarkable image serves as a reminder of India's contribution to World War One while shedding light on lesser-known aspects of global conflicts. Its historical significance is immeasurable as it captures an important chapter in both Indian and British history – one where cultures intertwined amidst challenging circumstances.
