Shital Tiwari's father Baiyanath Tiwari donated his land of over 20 acres in Chonubari Province of Thailand to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose in 1943 for setting up INA Training Camp when he visited Thailand in his pursuit to raise INA and secure freedom for India. The entire family, Shital Tiwari and his siblings and father were actively involved with Netaji in India's freedom struggle from Thailand.

Currently, Shitlal is the last man alive from Thailand INA. Shital is the last witness to this INA formation and the activities at the Thai INA camp from the start to the end. He is the live version of the living history. Much of the INA events in Thailand can be recited by him until this day. His mind and body are still sharp and healthy and it is of utmost importance to gather all the information from him and listen to too many stories first hand. Where else can one ever find this opportunity which relates deeply to the Indian freedom struggle?
