==Career==
Dr. Katial came to London in or around 1929, and started his career running a medical practice in Canning Town.〔(Save Finsbury Health Centre )〕 During that time, Dr. Katial - an acquaintance of Mahatma Gandhi - introduced Gandhi to Charlie Chaplin, at his house in Canning Town on 22 September 1931.〔(Newham Story "Charlie Chaplin and Mr. Gandhi" )〕〔(Newham Story "Gandhi & Chaplin" )〕
In 1935, Dr. Katial came to prominence as Chairman of the Public Health Committee of Finsbury Council, where he was responsible for pushing forward a programme for health and housing known as the Finsbury Plan - an ambitious plan to build a centralised facility that would incorporate a health centre, libraries, public baths and nurseries in the famously working class council.〔(Open2.net "From Here to Modernity" )〕 In 1937, as part of this plan, Dr. Katial commissioned architect Bertold Lubetkin to build the Finsbury Health Centre.〔(Islington Tribune "Pioneer's grandchildren plea to save historical health centre" )〕〔(BMJ "Nothing is too good for ordinary people" )〕 The Centre was renowned both for its architectural style and its new approach to centralised health - housing multiple free medical facilities under one roof, and predating the National Health Service by over 10 years.〔(UK PubMed Central "Asian Doctors in the NHS" )〕
In 1938 to 1939, Dr. Katial was elected mayor of Finsbury Council. During the Second World War, he served as a First-Air Medical Officer. On 8 June 1948, he was granted the Freedom of the Borough of Finsbury.〔(British Medical Journal (26 June 1948) Medical News )〕〔(British Medical Journal (26 June 1948) Medical News, hosted on National Center for Biotechnology Information )〕
