Answer 2

(b) The Famine of Bengal in 1943

Explanation:

The last major famine in the British era occurred in 1943, which is also known as the Bengal famine. The famine resulted in nearly 2.1 to 3 million deaths due to starvation, malaria, or other diseases aggravated by malnutrition, population displacement, unsanitary conditions and lack of healthcare. Historians have frequently characterized this famine as "man-made", asserting that wartime colonial policies created and then exacerbated the crisis.
