London: A total of 9,909 Indian soldiers previously missing from the records of those killed during the First World War were added to the official records in the UK on Monday, after a major research project drawing on rare historical records.
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) said a past historical omission meant that these Army servicemen from pre-Partition India, who fought as part of the British Indian Army during the colonial era in the twentieth century, were never formally commemorated.
