Rare are the blessed souls that seek to walk in the light of altruism shedding luster around in selfless service and Rajarshi Vikram Deba Varma ( 1869-1951 ) of Jeypore belongs to such a rare tribe .

A revolt of Navy that would have stopped Partition of #India - A thread.
On the slight autumn day of 18 Feburary 1946 a revolt broke out in Royal Indian Navy by the Sailors. Britishers after World War 2 started to reduce the numbers of sailors. Again it’s simple use and throw policy used here. The numbers were to be reduced from 27, 650 to 11,000.
Reasons sailors revolted were:
• Wages were low.
• Food quality was terrible.
• Indian sailors were ill treated by the British officers.
• Britishers called Indian sailors who supported them in World War 2, colies, black bastards.
• Racism in the RNI was at it’s peak.

Did Ghazi get its target? Or did Vikrant manage to counter the deadly submarine?
