(2/6) She is a woman who seems to symbolise the cooperation between India and Japan during WWII. She wished for the independence of her mother country, which she had not yet seen, who were instrumental in Subhas Chandra Bose's efforts to work with the Japanese Army. (cont.)

(3/6)With a burning desire, she volunteered for the 'Indian National Army Women's Corps'. 
Through a fortunate connection, I had the opportunity to meet 94-year-old Asako and her family on three occasions last month. (cont.)

(4/6)This year marks the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between India and Japan, and the 10th anniversary of Muse Creation. It also coincides with the 80th anniversary of the first rally of the Provisional Government of Free India in Tokyo. (cont.)
