Indian Indentureship was an intense and harrowing period of Indian migration from several Indian states to far way lands of then British colonies, in particular the Caribbean region. The majority of those labourers came from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, Jharkand, Madhya Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Pondicherry. March 20, 2017 marked the centennial of official abolition of Indian Indentureship, an era spanning the years The history and consequences of Indian Indentureship are deeply embedded with tremendous significance, importance, meaningful history and reflections to millions of descendants living in many countries which were the recipients of Indian Indentured labourers seeking better livelihoods. These countries included: Mauritius, Fiji, Malaysia, South Africa, Guyana, Trinidad, Suriname, Jamaica, Belize and other countries of the Caribbean, as well as former French colonies of Reunion Island, Seychelles, Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana. It started in 1834 in Kolkata when the first ships sailed with hundreds of Indian laborers bound for Mauritius. This continued until 1917, finally It concluded with an Act of Parliament in London on 20 th March 1917 the Abolition of Indian Indentureship Labour.
