Question

give an account of famines that ravaged india's countryside since 1876

Answer 1

The Great Famine of 1876–78 (also the Southern India famine of 1876–78 or the Madras famine of 1877) was a famine in India under the British Raj. It began in 1876 after an intense drought resulting in crop failure in the Deccan Plateau.[1] It affected south and southwestern India (Madras, Mysore, Hyderabad, and Bombay) for a period of two years. In its second year famine also spread north to some regions of the Central Provinces and the North-Western Provinces, and to a small area in the Punjab.[2] The famine ultimately covered an area of 670,000 square kilometres (257,000 sq mi) and caused distress to a population totaling 58,500,000.[2] The death toll from this famine is estimated to be in the range of 5.5 million people.[3] British economic policies played a substantial role in exporting grain out of India and otherwise exacerbating the famine's mortality.
