Justice Markandey Katju-(Justice Markandey Katju is a former Judge, Supreme Court of India, and former Chairman, Press Council of India. Churchill hated Indians, calling them ‘ a beastly people with a beastly religion ‘, and was totally against granting independence to India, being a die hard imperialist. Leo Amery, the former Secretary of State for India, in his private diary wrote ” On the topic of India, Winston is not quite sane ”. Who can forget Churchill’s role in the fight against Nazi Gemany in the Second World War? India is not isolated in the world, and it too would have come into the fascist grip if Hitler had succeeded.
