The same way anybody would travel from India to Britain at that time - they would travel by steamship from India around Africa, then north through the Atlantic to England. Some probably traveled from India across the Pacific, through the Panama Canal and then across the Atlantic to England. Mass air travel across the major oceans did not really begin until after World War 2.
