Abstract

Political Science
Bengal Famine, 1943, British colonial policies, political consciousness, anti-colonial movements, firsthand narratives, Indian independence movement.
The Bengal Famine of 1943, a devastating event that resulted in the deaths of millions, had profound effects on the political landscape of Bengal. This research article explores the famine through the lens of firsthand narratives, examining how these personal accounts reveal the complex interplay between colonial policies, local governance, and societal responses. By analyzing eyewitness testimonies, archival records, and contemporary reports, this study aims to illuminate the human experience of the famine and its impact on political consciousness and movements in Bengal.The findings highlight the critical role of British colonial policies in exacerbating the crisis, with wartime priorities and resource diversion significantly contributing to the famine's severity. The colonial administration's delayed and inadequate response exposed the exploitative nature of British rule, deepening political discontent among the Indian populace.Local leaders and nationalist movements responded with vigorous criticism and organized relief efforts. The Indian National Congress, the Communist Party of India, and grassroots organizations played crucial roles in mobilizing support and advocating for the affected population, thereby intensifying anti-colonial sentiments.The famine also had a profound impact on political consciousness in Bengal. The collective suffering and visible failures of the colonial administration united diverse political factions and strengthened the resolve for self-governance, accelerating the momentum of the Indian independence movement.This study underscores the interconnectedness of personal suffering and political change, emphasizing the importance of compassionate and effective governance. By bringing to light the firsthand experiences of those who lived through the famine, it provides a deeper understanding of the Bengal Famine's lasting impact on Indian society and politics.
