You seem to be misunderstanding me. I'm not saying India was one of the biggest contributors to both World Wars - it absolutely was. And yes, reparations would make sense, but there's no chance in hell the UK pays up, or they'll open the floodgates. However to claim the Bengali famine had anything to do with that is misleading at best. Cotton, iron, coal wouldn't have helped the starving people, and there was enough food within India and the wider British Empire. It wasn't a choice between people in Bengal starve or we don't build enough tanks/send enough troops to North Africa. It was bad weather, the war ( the fall of Burma), incompetence, negligence that caused the famine, not a premeditated choice to sacrifice the people of Bengal for the war effort.
