Re: Subcontinent - 1835
This seems questionable, because by 1835 the British East India company had already completed its conquest of most of India.
Not only that, but Lord Macaulay’s address to Parliament on 2nd February 1835 did not contain these words at all. The entire speech is contained in the link given below. What the speech does contain is advice for Britain to stop supporting Sanskrit and Arabic education, as well as denouncing both Hinduism and Islam as false religions, and recommending that Indian be educated as English speakers in an effort to produce British-like Christian Indians.
Too bad people don’t do research on pictures they see on the internet.
Re: Subcontinent - 1835
thats even more pathetic and evil than what is written in the first post picture. so denouncing hinduism/islam was not a big issue? i know you’ll come up with something “british” to justify their actions and words. but there are certain things which can never be justified no matter how hard one try.

I did raise the denounciation as an issue. I extracted it from the larger body of text so that people could see that Lord Macaulay's agenda was to transform indians into englishmen.
What's pathetic is your accusation that I didn't make this a big issue, despite almost the entire body of my post being dedicated to pointing this out.
Re: Subcontinent - 1835
Interesting post maddy, couldn't find that anywhere either. Hmm!
