Gushkara is a small railway junction town in Burdwan district, West Bengal, and during the Second World War it hosted a significant British Indian military presence. This note is one of scores of locally-issued canteen and officers' mess tokens produced across the subcontinent when wartime coin shortages made small change effectively unavailable. The Reserve Bank of India had suspended fractional coin production priorities, and military installations simply improvised.
Officers' club chits of this type circulated entirely within the issuing establishment — they carried no legal tender status and were redeemable only at the bar or mess counter. Most were pulped at war's end, which accounts for the rarity of surviving examples from minor stations like Gushkara.
