Janaki Thevar - INA Freedom Fighter.
Janaki Thevar was only 18 when she heard Bose’s appeal to Indians to give whatever they could for their fight for India’s Independence. Immediately she took off her gold earrings and donated them. She was determined to join the INA. There was strong family objection especially from her father. But after much persuasion, her father finally agreed.
Having been brought up in a well-to-do family, she initially could not adapt to the rigours of army life. On her first day, the food served made her cry. However, she gradually got used to military life and her career in the Regiment took off when she ranked first in the officer’s examinations and rose to become the second-in-command in the Women’s Regiment.
