Who did Kitchener quarrel with in India?
Mahatma Gandhi
Jawaharlal Nehru
Lord Curzon
Rudyard Kipling
Answer
The answer is Lord Curzon. Lord Curzon, the Viceroy of India from 1899 to 1905, and Lord Kitchener, the commander-in-chief of the British forces in India, had a strained relationship due to differences in opinion on military matters and administrative reforms. Kitchener believed in a strong and centralized military command, while Curzon favored greater civilian control over the military. This led to frequent disagreements and conflicts between the two men.
