Correct Answer - Option 1 : 1945-1946
The correct option is 1945-1946.
The Red Fort Trials (1945-1946):
- These were trials for treason of officers in the Indian National Army(INA), which had been formed in 1942 with the aim of overthrowing the British Raj in India.
- They were initially composed of Indian prisoners of war captured by the Japanese, but then fought with the Japanese against the British and Commonwealth forces in Burma and elsewhere.
- After the war the Red Fort Trials (held in the Red Fort in Delhi) of captured INA officers provoked massive public outcry, eventually triggering the Bombay mutiny in British Indian forces.
