The article argues how respectful Churchill was of India and its well being despite him being occasionally racist and awful. I would have tried to see the point in all fairness, but this article seems to portray an agenda to clear the dislike (or hatred) people have on Churchill on account of him being ill and old then.
While I haven't read the primary sources that claim Churchill's efforts in restoring food balance in India, I am not convinced he could not have prevented this from happening in the first place --- after all, Bengal or India was being ruled by them.
Feels like damage control and a beg at cutting some slack.
