When the
#British imprisoned
#Indians or held them as detenus or internees, usually in cases where there were no charges & no trials (as when Savarkar was interned in Ratnagiri from 1924 to 1937), they paid a monthly allowance to them for 'loss of income' so they (in terms of food etc) and/or their families could maintain themselves. Govt statue allowed them to have money from the public purse for this purpose. When the Raj, in the early 1930s, decided to drastically cut these allowances, Subhas Chandra Bose
wrote from Europe (where he stayed for 3 yrs from 1933 to 1936) protesting against the cuts & discussing the issue. Here's his first letter which was published in The Guardian on 4 April 1933.

The letter led to much debate & replies, in the course of which names of those getting allowances, those still not getting allowances and the merits/demerits of the issue were discussed in detail. Bose himself provided a lot of details, as can be seen here in another letter he wrote to the paper.

There were also some Britishers who supported his case & the case of
#Indian prisoners, their families & their dependents during this debate, as this letter reveals. Neither Savarkar nor Gandhi nor Bose nor Bose's brother were 'traitors'.

@hit&run @Indx TechStyle I tell you in this post about Charkha fraud and freedom.
BHARAT's freedom struggle never began with any concept of non violence. Remember 1857 and even before that there were many uprisings.
It was only in 1915ad that Mkgandhi decided to insert non violence. That also after getting relieved from the brits service as sergeant major. Not forget sending millions of Indians to get slaughtered in ww1 so much for non violence.
Then finally from 1916ad onward to 1930ad many of such Charkha infested satyagraha were organised by Gandhi in that some of them were failed and some of them were bit successful.
But successful how? Most notable point is in that duration none these satyagraha's brought freedom to nor dominion status.
Infact after 1931ad no huge uprising was ever made. Infact the parallel govt signed by the brits crown. It was only in 1942ad then we saw some action. But even that action was far from success. We are now talking about quit India movement. The larp is quit India movement made brits run away. That is a LIE.
Background of Quit India Movement.
When the second world war broke out in 1939ad. Without consulting India Viceroy of India. Vermin linlithgow declared that India alongside with britian be at war with germany.
The congress other leaders were outraged and the congress ministries in the provinces resigned. See how that congress were running govt. and yet the larp of freedom movement contribution.
Then they said they would only support the war effort only if britian promise Independence to India. So the vermin linlithgow responded with a threat of his own. That if the congress did not support britain then will turn to moslems league.
The congress had to back down. But in the face of rising discontent in India, the Cripps Mission was sent to India.
The cripps mission which arrived in march 1942 was to discuss a change in India’s political status. Should note that cripps offered only Dominion status not full independence.
Both the Congress and moslems league rejected the proposal.
So congress and Gandhi Launched Quit India Movement. The day after a statement made by the viceroy of India. That is the linlithgow on behalf of brits Parliament on 8 August 1940ad.
What Really Happened to Quit India Movement?
The government cracked down immediately and by august 9 Gandhi & all other senior congress leaders had been jailed. Gandhi was taken agakhan palace in Pune and later to Yerwada jail.
The Movement Become Leader less.
Without Proper Leadership the Movement turned into Violence in many Places.
Then the vermin british started brutal suppression of protests people were shot and lathicharged villages were burnt and backbreaking fines were imposed more then 62k were thrown into jails.
To be continued in next part.
