He decided to go abroad to join hands with the enemies of the British and drive the British out of India. He was put under house arrest in Calcutta, but he managed to escape in 1941. He first went to Russia and then to Germany and finally to Japan. In Tokyo, he took over the leadership of the Indian Independence Movement in East Asia from Rash Behari Bose. Captain Mohan Singh (a former captain in the British Indian army) had organized the Azad Hind Fauz of the Indian National Army (INA).
