Ghadar Party, which played a vital Role in the freedom struggle of India, was started as a Movement in 1907 by Indian Immigrants on the West (Pacific) Coast of North America at the beginning of the First World War. About 8,000 of these immigrants, 95% of them Sikhs, left Canada and the United States of America for India, to free India from the British rule.
