The present study "India and the Soviet Union : 1917 to 1947" is based on the author’s Ph.D. Thesis "Russia and India: An analytical study of the Freedom Struggle" (Lucknow University, 1990). It deals with the relations between Indian nationalists and Russia, and the subtle ideological influence they had on each other, between 1917 and 1947. The intensity and the gravity of the effects of the Russian Revolution of 1905, and the Bolshevik Revolution, 1917, have seriously been taken up in this study. Also, the visible and otherwise, effects of the pertinent emerging Indian ideologies in the Soviet people in general, and the paramount Soviet leaders in particular, have been explored.
