    Was famine a product of revolution in china? That time, china had to go through severe drought. Could a newly-formed state with most backward agriculture and ecomomy cope with that natural disaster? Remember, more than 30 lacs indian people died in man-made famine in brtish india in 1943. The then british government, under winston churchill, was solely responsible for that man-made famine. One should go through study of history( not fake western history) before going to make foolish comments on important historical events.
