Who was the Correspondent of the Newspaper 'Times' published from London in 1857 wrote that "Nobody in the North India looks at white man's car with friendly view" ?

  • A.W. H. Russel
  • B.Robert Peel
  • C.Gladoston
  • D.Palmerston

Answer: A

The correspondent was W. H. Russel (William Howard Russell).

William Howard Russell of The Times of London, often called the first modern war correspondent after his reports from the Crimean War, was sent to India to report on the uprising of 1857 and its suppression. His dispatches and his My Diary in India describe the hostility towards the British that he met in northern India.

The other options were British politicians, not journalists: Sir Robert Peel, who died in 1850, and Gladstone and Palmerston, who were Prime Ministers.
