Did the British come to India to rule or for some other purposes?
I see. How did the British's rule in India affect the country's economy and society?
The British rule had a significant impact on India's economy and society. They introduced a new system of administration and infrastructure, which helped in the development of modern transport and communication systems. However, they also exploited India's resources for their own gain, resulting in the systematic draining of India's wealth. The British also enforced discriminatory policies based on race and religion, which led to social unrest and division in the country.
