Hitlers secret friend

[Ganga]

While most Indians know Subhas Chandra Bose met Adolf Hitler in 1941 for India's freedom, he was apparently not the first. According to a new Marathi book that will hit the stands in September, ruler of erstwhile Baroda state, Sayajirao Gaekwad, met the German dictator during the 1936 Berlin Olympics for the same reason.

Gaekwad even signed a secret pact with Hitler to get his support for India's freedom. It was known as the Baroda-Berlin Pact.

Gaekwad's personal assistantVishnu Nene was sent to Germany to arrange the meeting. "Gaekwad believed an enemy's enemy is a friend. So, he decided to join hands with Hitler," says Dr Damodar Nene, who has written a new biography of Gaekwad and gives details of the pact. He is Vishnu Nene's son. The book, ‘Sayajirao Gaekwad Chi Biography' has been published by Ved Gandharva publishers of Pune.

To ensure that the British don't suspect anything, Gaekwad took their permission to attend the Berlin Olympics. "His box was placed right under Hitler's during the opening ceremony," Nene says.

Gaekwad is believed to have promised Hitler the support of all Hindu princes in case of a war in Europe. "It was agreed that Hindu princes would back Hitler during the World War II and Hitler would support India in its freedom struggle. The pact was kept a well-guarded secret as the British would have considered it an act of treason," Nene adds.

"Gaekwad signed the pact as chancellor of the Chamber of Princes and was confident that all the members would support him," Nene says. The chamber was established in 1920 by royal proclamation to provide a forum to rulers of the princely states to voice their concerns to the British. It survived until 1947.

The Maratha king had even sponsored a group of sportspersons from Amravati who wanted to participate in the Olympics. "He asked the sportspersons to carry a saffron flag during opening celebrations as they were representing Baroda," Nene said. The pact was forgotten after Gaekwad died in 1939 even as the world stood on the brink of a devastating war.

well but what happen that all hindus supported the birtish in WW II by the way i dont know any name of any hindu prince India was ruled by muslim kings like of Akbar and others and other state princess also been choosen Muslims only handfull hindus might have been princess with their support i dont think so hittler was that stupid going to fight british anyway

 

[NWO]

hittler was that stupid going to fight british anyway

Actually, some believed that Hitler wanted the Churchill to join him so they could fight the true threat, Soviet Russia and her Communism. This is why some people say Hitler didn't attack Britain immediately after they declared war, from October, 1939 to April, 1940. In fact, this was sometimes called the 'Phoney War'. Phoney War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hitler should have never attacked USSR.Without USSR i doubt Hitler would have lost.

SuperFalcon, Please explain your statement. I could not understand your point.

From your minorities comment, I think you're trying to say that most of the princely rulers were Muslims. While dont have access to any data around it, but I dont think that Muslim rulers constituted the majority of the Princely rulers in India during WWII. Its true the Mughals who were Muslims ruled the sub-continent for 300 years and many Muslim nobles broke away to form their own kingdoms. But so did Hindu nobles. We cant for sure say that a majority of the rulers in India were Muslims.

And your comment on Hindus love for Jews. Well thats based on current circumstances. During WWII. Hindus or Indians for that matter hardly identified with either Jews or Nazis. And neither the Princely rulers. The rulers, as evident by this example, were just trying to fry their own fish in the fire.

P.S. A sincere request. Please be more coherent in your posts. Its really hard to understand what you're trying to say. I'd suggest you make better use of punctuations.

sir ji, Akbar wasn't a muslim At all, he invent a new religion called Deen-i-ILAHi, in which he consider himself as an Avatar Of God. Thats what i read so far about him in histroy.

Hitler could have had won the war, but he was such a suspicious man that he didnt believed in any person , not even in the axis powers, he made blunderous decisions in the war, and was too stubborn

Germany was successful at the start cuz Hitler let the generals be in charge of the war. Hitler had many competant generals in the form of Kesselring and Brautisch but then he decided that he himself was a genius and took over the war. Subsequently Barbarossa came and hence eventually defeat.

Again a confusing statement. We dont love "JEWS" but have diplomatic and strategic relations with "ISRAEL" same on pattern with Russia. We neither romance anyone nor hate anyone.
Second point, How Hitler can get help from minorities of current India.. as per last update, I heard he committed suicide? Please tell me If I am missing something.

I have always found it intresting, what Hitler told his Nazi buddies when he was meeting these Indians or Japanese! Or did the "Aryan Superiority" **** disappear when mutual benifit was present. Slightly contradicting wouldnt you say

I cant believe your post count is 5400+ and each and every one of them without a single punctuation mark.

Great achievement methinks!

Not a problem with "Aryan Superiority theory" as we are also Aryans..isn't it?

Dont think the Nazis really agreed with that. Aryan for them meant Blonde, Blue eyes etc.
