    Please elaborate on how British rule altered your country's progression.

    I sincerely want to know how things would have possibly been different sans British input.

    Our Holy book Geeta is the closest to being the first one on Objectivism. Unfortunately, like it would happen to every developed society in the final phase of development cycle, the intellectuals started preaching on how mercy sometimes is more important than Justice. Eventually, the mughal arrived, britishers conquered and we lost whatever was thought in Geeta. However, sub-consciously when we read Ayn Rand, we connect with our ancestors in a karmic way. (Little freaky but this is what i felt)

    Well that might explain India's economic growth!
