EUROPEAN JEWS

In the 1930s and the 1940s some 2000 Jewish refugees escaped from European Anti-Semite countries and arrived in India. These Jews had liberal professions like doctors and they worked in their profession at different places in India. Before 1950 most of these Jews left India and immigrated to west Europe and United States. There were also Jewish people in the British services in India. Between 1921-26 the Viceroy of India was Lord Reading who was born to Jewish parents.
