India During The Raj Days
How was our India in the days of our grand-grand-grandfathers? What were the achievements of our country during those days, when we were under alien rule? Was there any real development, or were those days full of oppression? Or did our forefathers experience both development and at the same time subjugation?
Here are some glimpses of India during the 200-year old British colonial rule. Though I’ve tried my best to collect captions of all the pictures, yet I couldn’t do so! I will surely put captions to all the pictures as soon as I get them.
