No one shows that... India contributed the largest all-volunteer army to the war, yes China tied down a lot of axis resources but at the same time, it also tied down a lot of allied resources, a lot which were coming from India...

And there's a good reason why the Soviet Union, later on Russia, is on the SC with veto power. Allies would have eventually defeated Germany, with or without Soviet's help. It's just faster with the Soviets. Likewise, the US would have eventually defeated Japan with or without China's help. It's just faster with the Chinese.
