Today in Labor History February 18, 1946: Sailors in the Royal Indian Navy mutinied in Bombay harbor. Their rebellion spread throughout the Provinces of British India. 20,000 sailors participated on 78 ships and 20 shore establishments. British troops and Royal Navy warships ultimately suppressed the mutiny. The Indian National Congress and Muslim League both condemned the mutiny, while the Communist Party of India supported the rebellion.
