Abstract

More to the approach of divide and conquer; another vital aspect of British rule in India was the psychological indoctrination of an elite layer within Indian society who was artfully tutored into becoming model British subjects. This English-educated stratum of Indian society was craftily encouraged in absorbing values and notions about themselves and their land of birth and furthering British goals of prowling India's physical wealth and exploiting its labour.
