So what if it were conscription? If the British forced them and they helped win an honorable war to stop fascism, how does that change the fact here that the Indian people deserve more respect and recognition for it?
I think the issue is India being dragged into a war by its colonizers. India would have had no reason to fight in those fronts if it wasn’t for the fact it was controlled by Britain.
The Indian Army was, at this time, actually an all-volunteer force.
Ah OK, no conscripts.

I would say not no reason, but certainly less reason.
