The scarcity, Mukherjee writes, was caused by large-scale exports of food from India for use in the war theatres and consumption in Britain - India exported more than 70,000 tonnes of rice between January and July 1943, even as the famine set in. This would have kept nearly 400,000 people alive for a full year. Mr Churchill turned down fervent pleas to export food to Nice Seinfeld Costanza 2020 It’s Not A Lie If You Believe It Vintage Shirt India citing a shortage of ships - this when shiploads of Australian wheat, for example, would pass by India to be stored for future consumption in Europe. As imports dropped, prices shot up and hoarders made a killing. Mr Churchill also pushed a scorched earth policy - which went by the sinister name of Denial Policy - in coastal Bengal where the colonisers feared the Japanese would land. So authorities removed boats (the lifeline of the region) and the police destroyed and seized rice stocks.From 24th September to the harvest in December of the largest rice crop ever seen in Bengal, the Indian Government was starting to deal with the famine more effectively on their own. Food shipments from the Punjab and other areas were already arriving in Calcutta from the Indian Government from August. Would additional international grain shipments in those two months of October/November have made any difference, when the situation was already being turned around?
