During World War II, India served as the temporary base for an elite Chinese military force. This force was trained in India to form part of the strike force for the eventual expulsion of the Japanese army from Burma. The existence of this Chinese Army in India (CAI), stationed at Ramgarh in Bihar province (present-day Jharkhand), was so secret that it was not made public until after the war.
