Unrecoverabe damages caused by the Britishers

How often have we seen the Britishers being thrashed for looting all the wealth and using our human resources to Develop their own country? 

After pondering upon this topic and reading about the facts and figures, this has only left me with a dilemma. On one hand, while Britishers introduced so many policies and laws to divide India, they also gave us the fuel to unite on the same terms and fight against them. 

It's just a matter of perspective, not that I am in any way supporting the various destructive steps that Britishers took. But looking at the greener side, Britishers United us in a way that the entire country stands democratic and together today.

How has Indian youth developed themselves to rise up to become the highest population of English speaking youth? India is the largest democratic country and we do pride ourselves on our transport infrastructure, railways being on the top. 

Unrecoverable loss has been cause by them, but in the other light, let's not overlook the selfish motives which happened to become a changing  point for our nation. 

Growth vs Development

Being in Mumbai for a year has made me realise the major difference in the economic status of this country. You could go to the most expensive house in this city, that being Antilla and be surprised to see that its encircled by slums. 

This shows you the major battle India has been fighting. Economic growth which is taking place at a moderate rate is still much more than the development that can be seen. Numbers don’t speak in terms of the living standard that persists in this country. 

The development is taking place, but not at such a rapid rate. With growth being given such prime importance, it has increased in the previous few years and it can be seen that the PCI has been pressing issue that is undertaken by the government.

But is it enough to just concentrate on the numbers and not on the reality that we witness every day?

The emphasis is basically because the government feels that with the increase in the income of the people, they will be able to develop at a faster rate. Which, if you think more about it is not the only parameter of a developed country.
It has to be combined with other factors such as low infant mortality rate, more awareness, education and health facilities.

This is what is going to help us develop. To combine the numbers with the overall well being of the people.
