Against the tumultuous backdrop of Singapore in 1942 unfolds the extraordinary saga of Captain Mohan Singh of the 14 Punjab Regiment and the Indian National Army (INA). As the pioneering leader of the INA, Singh’s bold alliance with Japan sought to liberate India from the yoke of British rule but soon encountered treacherous challenges.

In chronicling how INA soldiers fought bravely when they got a chance, as well as the harrowing trials of them enduring starvation and sickness in Burma, this tale unveils a lesser-known chapter of history. The author masterfully follows the INA’s journey through the jungles of Burma to the postwar days in India when it hastened Independence, highlighting Subhas Chandra Bose’s pivotal rise to leadership along the way.

This is also the story of Lieutenant M.M. Pillai’s daring escape from Singapore. Of the grim fate of prisoners of war (POWs) like Warrant Officer John Baptist Crasta, one of 17,000 Indian POWs sent to hard labour camps in the Pacific. Of the war crime trials held by the Australians for Japanese atrocities against these POWs where Subedar Chint Singh was a key witness. Of the wives waiting for years with little news of their soldier-husbands.

Gautam Hazarika’s The Forgotten Indian Prisoners of World War II, enriched by personal accounts and the hard truth, is a testament to loyalty, resilience and the indomitable human spirit
