Biography
[edit]Nikola T. Janković-Kosovski was born in Old Serbia, at the time, part of the oppressive Ottoman Empire under the tyranny of Abdul Hamid II. Young Nikola decided early on to move to Belgrade in the Kingdom of Serbia, where he completed his Gymnasium and enrolled in the prestigious Military Academy from where he graduated as a non-commissioned officer. He joined the Serbian Chetnik Organization in late 1904, and was posted in Skopje Station near the Serbian consulate before he was ordered to relieve Panta Radosavljević [2] as the next chief of the mountain staff in Poreče by Bogdan Radenković and Serbian consul Milan Rakić. Radosavljević was the first Chetnik voivode and head of all cheta armed groups on the right side of the Vardar littoral from October 1905 until January 1906 before being relieved by Janković. From the mountain staff headquarters in West Povardarie (Zapadnovardarski gorsky štab) Nikola Janković led the Serbian Chetniks against the Ottoman Turks, Bulgarian Komitaji and Albanian Kachaks bands that threatened the Serbian population there[3]. He was part of the Upper Staff [4] along with Sreten Rajković-Rudnički, Pavle Blažarić, Panta Radosavljević-Dunavski. With the coming of the Young Turk Revolution in late 1907, a disagreement between various Serbian organizations in Skopje occurred[5]. A report from 11 December 1907 stated that the executive board of the Serbian Defence already had difficulties in its cooperation with the Society of Serbian Brotherhood. By 1908 most of the disagreements dissipated when the Chetnik Action stopped in favour of the Young Turk Revolution, though of short duration.[6]Janković then went on to participate in the Balkan Wars and World War I like the rest of his officer peers in the military.
Nikola T. Janković-Kosovski is regarded as a hero in the Macedonian Struggle.
