Despite the challenges and dangers of air travel during WW2, the Allied Forces did indeed use flights from India to resupply anti-Japanese guerrillas in British Malaya and send secret agents to aid their cause. This has been confirmed by the RAF Museum in the UK, which not only provides a factual account but also exhibits one of the actual aircraft used for such missions. One of these aircraft, a Consolidated B-24 Liberator bomber, was even part of the last combat mission of RAF's No.99 Squadron when it was stationed in the Cocos Islands, which puts it just under 12 hours of flying time away from Singapore.
