In 1942, Gandhi decided to organize the Quit India Movement, as Congressional leaders were offended by the unilateral inclusion of India in World War II by the British, without consultation of the people's representatives. Gandhi declared that India could not be party to a war being fought for democratic freedom while that freedom was denied to India itself.
The Second World War was fought between the Axis powers (Germany, Italy, Japan, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria) versus the Allies (U.S., Britain, France, USSR, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Greece, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, South Africa, Yugoslavia). Germany was led by Hitler, who was a fascist dictator who had condemned the Jews of his country to genocide.
What one has to understand is that Hitler wasn't a threat to just the Jews, but to civilization itself. He was out for world domination, as seen when he attacked one of the superpowers, the USSR.
In this light, the Communists in India felt that not supporting Britain (and thus, the Allied powers) more in the struggle against Nazi Germany was rashness.
