During the British rule in India, many fought the English in their own ways they think appropriate. Mahatma Gandhi, who chose non-violence, was considered the father of the Indian Nation because of his distinguished leadership quality and non-violence. Subhash Chandra Bose, on the other hand, took up arms and made an alliance with the Japanese Force, under the banner of Indian National Army (INA) and fought the British Govt. in India. INA first hoisted the Tri-color Indian flag in Manipur. It was during that time the INA and the Japanese Govt. used this currency.
