The Jallianwala Bagh massacre was perpetrated as a preemptive action against civil unrest. It would not have happened if the British did not dehumanise Indians and had more consideration towards the lives of Indians.
The Bengal famine primarily happened because the British directed food stocks to be held back for their war efforts. The actions of local businesses were ultimately directed by the British government preferences. If the British wanted they could have had the food distributed to relieve the population. Once again this happened because they held racist views about Indians.
Nearly every tragedy that took place in the Raj was ultimately caused by the British. Because they were the sovereign. And they looked at the governed population like we were subhuman.
I understand the Brits of today want nothing to do with the decisions their ancestors took in India. And this is right. You weren’t around back then. But because you want to look back at the imperial project with pride, you want to engage in victim blaming when it comes to the atrocities that happened in the Raj.
This might pass in the UK, but as Indians we can’t indulge you in your delusions. The British were to blame. They were in control of the state. They had a responsibility to the governed. And in many cases they neglected or actively worked against their duty.
