Britain didnt attempt to mitigate shit in india. They kept taking it out. They looted the entire country. Ask the Irish how much Britain mitigated their assaults.

Its absolutely insane you believe that.

There's literally an entire section on relief efforts on Wikipedia, with plentiful sources (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengal_famine_of_1943). It also clearly explains the aid wasn't enough and inadequately delivered, meaning it wasn't effective (especially initially). But it's not true that they did nothing at all.
