Indiapolitician and a former career international diplomat who is currently serving as member of parliament from Thiruvananthapuram Kerala , since 2009. He also currently serves as Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on External Affairs and all India professional congress Indian national congress. Shashi Tharoor make claims that, when the Britishers were left in 1947 from India, 90% of the population living below the poverty line. Britishers imposed taxes on the import of Indian textile. In the real sense that they make fool of Indian. In the case of education they claim that we raised the education level but, the truth India developed Institute of Technology, colleges for engineering were established after independence.
*Let's see Shashi Tharoor's view on postcolonialism...
Once upon a time when, Britishers ruled over India for so many years. After a lots of struggle we get independence. There were thousands debates going on still now on colonial and post colonial idea.
Shashi Tharoor presented all his view on British Empire and India and how they do loot in India.
British industrial revolution actually a form of de - industrialization of india. System of taking row materials from india and shifting manufactured clothes to world trade center.all profits and benefits of their only.
British flourished textile company in India by ' made in India ' hallmark of high quality. That is private profit of English and public risk of Indian.
Many Indians died because of them.During second world war in the great Bengal phenomenon , 4 million people died because of Churchill's decision of splay and policies. For them Bengali metters less. They are colonial enterprise only creates violence and racism.
In that time in railway, every single post given to english only after world war they highered Anglo Indian. Indian passenger paid highest rent and british lowest. After independence now rent are lower.
All the educational institutions and universities established after independence by Indian government.
Thus british empire create dehumanization , exploitation , violence , bloodshed , psychological damage , poverty structure, today's problems are direct result of British colonial experience.
