While most of the high-ranking officials within the Indian Empire were either British or of mixed British-Indian descent, the country was still called India and had a certain degree of autonomy, which was not just an empty talk.
After careful preparation, officers from the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, accompanied by intelligence personnel, disguised themselves as ordinary French businessmen and successfully arrived in the Indian Empire.
Given India's immense wealth, there were still many traders from various countries coming and going in India. The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs officials, after careful disguises, were not detected as abnormal by the British stationed in India.
After a rushed journey of nearly one week, the French representative, Norman Mackay, finally arrived at a stronghold of the Indian National Congress.
