India came under the influence of colonization several centuries ago. Though political independence was achieved in 1947, even after six decades, India is still fighting to come away from the shadow of colonization. The negative influence and impact of colonization was so strong on us; so that we are, till today, struggling hard to achieve small goals in long terms; whereas small countries are marching ahead in the path of progress and development.
