non-cooperation
From a wealthy Hindu background
University Educated
Trained in Law at the Inner Temple
in London
Was then a lawyer in South Africa,
where he took on cases of
discrimination against Indians
“It is alarming and also nauseating to see Mr.
Gandhi, a seditious Middle Temple lawyer of the
type well known in the East, now posing as a fakir,
striding half naked up the steps of the Vice Regal
palace to parley on equal terms with the
representative of the King-Emperor.”
Churchill on Gandhi
1919- The Amritsar Massacre
Between 310 and 100 dead after British Indian Army troops opened fire on protestors
Led to a loss of trust in the British administration
Gandhi started the non-cooperation movement in the 1920s

http://www.britishpathe.com/video/the-trouble-in-india/query/India
Churchill becomes PM in 1940
The war with Japan from Christmas 1941 threatens British India
Britain had already lost control of Singapore in February 1942
Indian National Congress announced a ‘Quit India’ campaign in August 1942
March 1942- Cripps Mission, led by Sir Stafford Cripps
Promised full self government after the war for cooperation
Churchill rejects Cripps proposals as too radical
He was not entitled to!
However Britain can’t now withdraw the offer
1943 – The Bengal Famine
Churchill refused to send extra food to India
Only sent 1/3 of what was requested
3 Million people died
If food was so scarce ‘Why hadn’t Gandhi died yet?’
India eventually granted independence in 1947 by Attlee’s Labour government
