Savarkar insisted that Hindus must join the Indian Army

[Guest guest]

Namaskar Mitra,

 

As part of the British strategy to contain Hindus they increased the % of

Punjabi Muslims in the Indian Army. Why because in the Mutiny of 1857 it is the

Punjabi Muslims who supported them. After 1930 they did not publish the % of

Muslims widely believed to have reached 60% by about 1940. The chart below from

the book 'Thoughts on Pakistan' by Dr B R Ambedkar compared the % of Muslims in

1914 and 1930. Which is why Savarkar kept on asking the Hindus to join the

Army, the only leader to do so. One of his many contributions to Bharat.
