On July 7, 1937, China commenced the Anti-Japanese War, and Mahatma Gandhi and the Congress Party leaders all strongly denounced the Japanese aggression. Jawaharlal Nehru called for all-India support to China’s anti-Japanese war. With his support, an Indian Medical Mission team was set up in August 1938 and dispatched to China. Dr. Kotnis, a member of the Indian Medical Mission, sacrificed his life in China.
