Description
About The Book: British rule in India (1757-1947) transformed the country politically, economically, and socially. Initially controlled by the British East India Company, Britain gained military dominance after the Battle of Plassey (1757). Following the 1857 Rebellion, the British Raj was established, with India’s resources exploited for British benefit. While railways, education, and infrastructure were introduced, Indian industries suffered. The rise of Indian nationalism, driven by leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, led to demands for independence. After World War II, Britain weakened by the war, partitioned India in 1947, creating India and Pakistan. The legacy of British rule is marked by economic exploitation and deep social divisions.
