The main objectives of the INA were as follows-
- To organise an armed revolution and to fight the British army with modern arms.
- Since it was not possible for the Indians to organise an armed revolution from their homeland, this task must be assigned to the Indians living abroad, particularly on Indians living in East Asia.
- To organise a provisional government of Free India in order to mobilise all the forces effectively.
- Total mobilisation of Indian man-power and money for a total war.
- The motto of the INA was 'unity, faith, sacrifice'.
