Britain has done her part. Before they took over, not "almost everyone was hungry in India".
The famines were created by the British during ww2. They took away the crops for their army and left the people who grew em starve to death.
Death to Britannia
@@sniffyjoe4229 Please. The British were the most backward people in the world. What sane person instigates man-made famine in a region with hundreds of millions of people, not to mention the countless massacres that took place. Individual achievements by British scientists were only possible thanks to the resources their government looted from their crown colonies.

We, hindus, are known to be the only civilization to have survived both Islamic and British (Christians) oppression and not only we overcame it, but from being a country of beggars, we, through hardwork brought India to the 5th position in the list of economy rankings. Now, we are heading towards the top spot and the world doesn't laugh at us like the way they used to 2-3 decades ago.

Are you stupid?
India has been independent for SEVENTY YEARS and you’re still whining about the ‘Britishers’ ? The ones who united India, saved you from Mughal slaughter and full Islamisation, gave you secular democracy and the common English language which is a big leg up on the global stage - Jesus the Brits don’t even whine about the Nazis as much. Get over yourselves you bitter twisted LOSERS
@Tyt Xlx Life expectancy, per capita income, access to education and healthcare, and our overall international standing are infinitely better now. You are one delusional child if you cannot see hard data like that.

"In India, nearly everyone is hungry". What kind of ignorance you need to not mention your "greatest prime minister" Winston Churchill's name? Scared of saying the truth out?
Maybe not in 2021, but in 1948 this statement was true
@TH-camrs fan And dj too India produces 3x of its food grains requirement.. before independence we had famines every few years, since independent we have zero..
Almost everyone is hungry !!!! I guess you're still living in the 1950s
It’s sad, as a Englishman India has produced some great minds and it’s incredibly wrong what Churchill did. He is only seen as a hero for being prime minister when the nazis fell. Heard that he was rude to his English subordinates as well as committing war crimes.

The road, rails and irrigation etc were the tools to ease their looting, which they left behind. Irrigation was to feed the Brits NOT to feed India.
Churchill alone was responsible for Bengal famine when he diverted all the food and left 3 million dead of starvation.

This exclusive documentary showed the young Lady Pamela Hicks nee Mountbatten with her parents Lord Louis Mountbatten and Lady Edwina Mountbatten during the Indian and Pakistani independence back in 1947. As of today 29th may 2023, she's over 94 years of age. As for India, it has gone past that era of widespread poverty and is now one of the leading economies and a member of the G 20.
They are saying Britain made roads and railways in india and then they say the people are hungry, but they never tell us that people are hungry because Britain has looted india for 200 years and British rule is one of the major reason of indias poverty what is the use of railways when people were not allowed to travel, what is the use of roads when the monopoly of trade was in the hands of the British authorities.

Patience is the art of hoping
Teach your kids this in their academics.
"In India nearly everyone is hungry", "Famines takes 7 million each year" and guess what they did with this knowledge: increase taxes and fines for not paying taxes. Do the unfair and label the victims hopeless, that's what they did. And guess what the Indian leaders were competent enough to uplift India from a broken slave to a cruel governance into a potential future super power.
Only recently I found out that India and Pakistan weren't the only countries that the British have left after kindling the fire of conflict. Israel and Palestine were also similar.
5:43 "Britain has fulfilled its mission". Yes stamping down a world economic trade center and super power into poverty, famine, fear and worse of all - communal riots: sadly this final mark by the British prevails to this day and takes many lives every year.
What a load of ridiculous bullshyte you are spouting
You are quite obviously a man with deep neuroses determined to re-write history to suit yourself.
If the British were deliberately imposing hunger on India why did their media openly report it?
I think the British Empire was a mixed bag, some great things came from it and some terrible, but it all belongs to history now. India and UK have had strong influence on each other's cultures and I hope both will maintain a great friendship throughout this century! 🙏🇬🇧🇮🇳❤️
That is a very civilised mindset to which all can aspire 🇬🇧🇮🇳
Indians are the most forgiving people IMHO. Yes, British Empire was a mixed bag, more terrible things and very less beneficial things came out of it. But we had embraced everything and moved on without holding any grudges.
What was terrible?
@@KomalD-cb2bu Quite clearly there are massive grudges judging by some of the hysterical comments under this video. What "more terrible things" were there?
@@OnlineEnglish-wl5rp For starters, I would like you to watch Shashi Tharoor's speech in Oxford University. Its only 10-15 mins. After you have watched it, then we can discuss more.
They divided "INDIANS" (Bangladesh, Pakistan, India). And now look we are fighting with each other. We are fighting with our own people. "Britain has fulfilled her mission"
Who will make people understand?
Children dying on the roads is an unimaginable horror. Today with 1.3B people, 99.99% of Indians are not starving and on top of that, we export food. Proud of how we transformed ourselves out of the clutches of British imperialism and became self sufficient and providing to the world. InfoTech, Steel, Chemicals, Food, Clothes, Ayurveda while taking the trash of the first world and recycling it back. We are just beginning...
And where did you get the ability to do all of that you numpty
Due to what reasons Britain was forced to leave India, this subject was discussed in detail with Attlee.
I asked them directly that "The Quit India Movement started by Gandhiji in 1942 was losing its edge.
There is no other reason in 1947 ?
What was the reason that suddenly the British government decided to free India ?
In response, Attlee gave many reasons, but the most important of them was the British in the Indian Army and the Navy ...
Growing dissatisfaction with the government and breathlessness. The main reason for increasing this distrust was the Indian National Army of Subhas Chandra Bose.
I asked Attlee at the end of the discussion how much influence Gandhiji had in the decision to liberate India ?
After listening to this Attlee taunted softly and said '

It's because of World War 2.
I suspect Britain had had a gutful of being held responsible for the world - India cost more to maintain and modernise than it ever made. The British people certainly never wanted it
Not mentioned here but one other major reason was that basically Britain no longer was even capable of holding on to it's empire Gandhiji might not have directly forced the Brits to leave but he did certainly provide a spiritual leadership and common ground to the INC this allowed diverse leaders like Jawaharlal Nehru and Vallabhai Patel to work under a single umbrella as they all respected him

So much bloody history has been made for the British!
India would have become a developed country by 1980 if Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose led the nation. He had a great vision and he was the one and only person by whom the Britishers were frightened.
Jay Hind 🇮🇳
We were GIVEN a womaniser, and Leftist looney to run our country for the next 50+ years.
Whats this Indian obsession with Subhash Bose and hate for Gandhi? To me Gandhi was better, Subhash was also a good freedom fighter but his alliance with Japan and the Nazis ruined his reputation.
@@janbazgamer9246 that was the only option. Non violence was never a option. British ran away because of Netaji's Azad hind not for Gandhi's non violence. Use your brain before commenting.
@@SusantaHazra-dc9xw I am using my brain, you should read some history first, Boses rebellion was all sponsered by the Japanese and it was on a very small scale, theres no way azad hind forces could have defeated the British even with Japanese support.Hideki Tojo himself was not impressed by Boses war strategy and military skills. The Real reason British left india was the sailors mutiny in 1946 and Gandhis self determination movement. I am not hating on Bose, he was a great freedom fighter but overshadowing gandhi before him is not historically and morally right.
Britain left us in very worst situation. We grouwed up very rapidly in just in these 70 years. One day we will be best in the world. Love india thanks to our leaders.
Bravo British Bravo, what they do and what they tell. Surely the world know the truth.
The world used to know that the British gave the world the scientific and industrial revolutions but today a mass of neurotic single men online have spun a rather different tale
4:36 from here you will see gift from the Britain
Would you have a documentary on Ceylon's independence day.
*Shows mass starvation and famine
That’s a result of British imperial policy!
It is.
Yes...it is
It was an unfortunate and unwanted consequence of having to fight the NAZIS. You can also blame the Japanese in Burma - but you won’t of course
They divided our beloved country into two. 💔
We will rise again 🚩 🙏
No you divided it yourselves through your constant fighting and sectarianism. Creation of Pakistan was REQUESTED not imposed
@@mogznwaz yes just like North Vietnam South Vietnam, just like Germany and many more. We were living together before that. Britain not only divided this land they drained and left us with 3rd most poorest country in the world from 20% in world GDP to 3rd most poorest country. Lakhs of Indian died during World War 2 just because British.
Available in tamil video? ?
India never saw famines until the arrival of The Great Thief.
Yes it did. It was also invaded by the Murghals. What *specifically* did the "Great thief" steal?
Its all because of Britain, that we suffered alot.
But after all these, we still able to place our country in the top ten lists of Economic development, military power and many others indices.
Proud to be an Indian 🇮🇳
@Thakur Veeru | it is also the British who TAUGHT you the *_very language_* you are abusing them with !
The boon in disguise was without Britain we might end up with many small sovereign states, and never stand as a Federated States of India.
@@dasalekhya we can still abuse you in our language, but you stupid asses won't understand.
You are only competing at all because of the benefits bestowed on you by Britain. Or do you think 500 kingdoms speaking different languages, fighting over religion, ruled by maharajahs dripping with diamonds while the peasants starved, caste system and female infanticide are good qualifications for global influence? Oh hang on you do pop out a lot of babies so there is that 🤔🙄
Your country's population doubled under the British
Before and After INDIA 😊🙏 Thank you Modi Ji 🇮🇳
As we stand in 76th Year of Indian Independence Azadi ka Amrit Muhastav we are self dependent on ourselves we are the 5th largest Economy in the world Supparssing the Great Britain once Ruled India

"Britain has fulfilled its mission" 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
3:25 "Less than a century under ..rule" what bollocks! get your facts straight at least.
British ruled for only 90 years directly. India was ruled by British East India Company before that.
It was officially placed under colonial rule after the revolt of 1857.
