The First World War (1914-1918) was a major event in modern world history. The events of that conflict changed the social and political map of the world. 

Though India was a British Colony at that time, it actively supported the war effort in its bid to gain Dominion status/Independence from the British Raj and contributed immensely in numerous battle-fields around the globe. 

By the end of the war nearly 14,00,000 Indians had served overseas of whom about 74,000 made the supreme sacrifice. Over 9,200 decorations for gallantry, including 11 Victoria Crosses were awarded to Indian soldiers who fought in WWI.

First Day Covers (FDCs):

Four First Day Cover (FDCs) have been issued in this set, all titled "Indians in First World War" (in both Hindi and English). Common to all these FDCs is a picture at left showing an anti-aircraft gun position manned by Indian soldiers getting ready to engage an enemy aircraft coming its way, while other soldiers are running to take cover.

The postage stamps at top right are the only variation in all these four FDCs. The Cancellation Handstamp shows New Delhi's India Gate Memorial  in the centre and is of New Delhi Head Office. The Cancellation date is "20.08.2019".

Major Battle Theatres:

Mesopotamia:

In Mesopotamia, after initial setbacks to the designated Indian Expeditionary Force "D", the series of operations which culminated in the capture of Baghdad completely transformed the military situation and produced political effects of far reaching significance.

India's share in the achievement of this important success consisted in providing over 3/4 of the force deployed, over 3/4 of the river craft and the entire railway material and personnel, without which the operations would have been impossible.

Of the 86 Battalions composing the force at the time of capture of Baghdad, India had contributed 73 and all but two of the 43 squadrons of cavalry. Three Indian soldiers were awarded the Victoria Cross for acts of conspicuous gallantry in Mesopotamia.

The above 500 Paise (or Rs.5/-) postage stamp (S) is titled "Major Battle Theatres - Mesopotamia".

The Indian Expeditionary Force "G", that served in the Dardanelles was not very large in number; yet it had a significant impact upon the course of the operations and no account of the campaign can overlook the contribution of the 14th sikh in the Third Battle of Krithia or the 1/6 Gurkhas in the decisive battle of Sari Bair.

This memorial has since been designated as the Indian Cavalry Memorial. In 01/2018, its name was changed from Teen Murti Memorial to Teen Murti Haifa Memorial to commemorate the capture of Haifa in Israel by the Jodhpur and Mysore Lancers on 23.09.1918.
