Answer 1

Answer:

The weakness of the English army was that most of its soldiers were Indians. It was alternatively known as the British Indian army before 1947.

The Indian army was a part of the World wars but didn't have any formal existence until 1894. It consisted of the Bengal Army, Bombay Army and Madras Army.

From 1895 onwards, the Indian army was referred to as "Army of the Government of India", which included both the British as well as the Indians.
