The first one was Ghadar party formed in USA from where they planned to wage war against the British govt in India. It was the time of WW I. It was mostly organised by Punjabi Sikhs and few other Punjabis. Very noted persons were members of the organisation. It also organised activities along with Bagha Jatin another famous Bengali activist and with the help of German govt tried to send arms and ammunition for starting armed rebellion in India. They basically aimed at instigating Indian army regiments in India to commit mutinies throughout the cantonments. However there were many betrayers too in the organisation due to which most of the mutinies failed and mutineers were arrested and nearly 500 of activists were hanged and scores were jailed in anda,mans . The mission failed to achieve aims. However the Ghadar party could stir passions in revolutionaries and person like Ras behari Bose escaped to Japan and raised The Aza hind fauz in Japan . Netaji Bose later ecaped to Germany met Hitler and convinced Hitler to wage war against the British govt and libearte India., Netaji raised a libeartion army called Indian legion that was 3000 strong with logo of springing tiger that was part of German army Wehrmacht and German army officers commanded the army. and trained them, This force was not to be used in WW II against other armies except the British army. The force was raised in Berlin with the captured soldiers in WW II mostly during operations in Africa. Later due to change of German plans , Netaji went to Japan with the help of Germans by submarine and took control of rickety Indian national army from Ras bihari bose and under his illustrious command it rose to be a strong fighting force with 60 000 fighting troops amounting to three divisions who were well trained. Netaji also established Free India govt at Singapore and had separate currency and bank Netaji was the president and PM of Azad hind govt and was the supreme commander of INA. This force along with Japanese army attacked Burma and later entered Eastern India, fought bitter battles with Britisn army and captured important areas in Manipur and Nagaland.Indian flag was hoisted at manipur for the fisrst time. However, when Atom bomb was dropped on Japan by USA in 1945, japan had to surrender and INA also surrendered.
