Abstract

ABSTRACT This article investigates the anti-British political activities of Malayan Sikhs through their participation in the Ghadar movement (1913–18). Although the Malayan Sikhs were generally renowned as loyal British subjects, a considerable number of them became ardent revolutionaries primarily due to Ghadar propaganda that fuelled their desire for India’s independence. The article explores the origins of the Ghadar movement in Malaya and then discusses the movement’s primary goals, main activists, strategies, and struggle against the British in India, as well as the measures taken by the British in Malaya to suppress it. The failure of the Ghadar movement and its legacy is subsequently examined.

马来亚锡克教徒参与加达尔运动:从忠诚的英国臣民到热情的革命者
本文通过马来亚锡克教徒参与加达尔运动(1913 - 1918)来考察他们的反英政治活动。虽然马来亚锡克教徒通常被认为是忠诚的英国臣民,但他们中的相当一部分人成为了热情的革命者,主要是因为加达尔的宣传助长了他们对印度独立的渴望。本文探讨了马来亚Ghadar运动的起源,然后讨论了该运动的主要目标,主要活动家,策略,以及在印度与英国人的斗争,以及英国在马来亚采取的镇压措施。伽达尔运动的失败及其遗产随后被审查。
