Despite going through numerous education reforms during British Colonial rule, why does India still experience low literacy rates and poor institutional health?
(2023) EOSK12 20231Department of Economic History
- Abstract
- Many reforms have been concluded in India during British Colonial rule however India still has not succeeded in the provision of valuable education across all strata of the society. A lot has been written on the topic and it seems the end conclusion is that British Colonial rule is did not have sufficient fund and personnel to cater the vast county’s needs. Even worse, the gap between rich and
poor has been widened by providing education to wealthy Indians that would be then able to implement Western ideas to locals.
