Description

The British Empire Destroyed India. Prove to me why they were good/beneficial to India.

I spent a lot of time working in India, and working with a lot of Indian engineer, aside from learning not to trust anyone who says “it’s not too hot, don’t worry”,I was actually interested by much of their responses to colonialism. While I don’t want to list the details as it will help cons case; I’ve heard some argue the legacy of colonialism isn’t all bad, and isn’t net bad - they made some pretty decent cases to it.

Anyone who accepts this debate as con obviously has no knowledge of history and is most likely racist.

In other words, this will be an easy win.

I don't know how anybody can say that the British were beneficial for India.

Thanks man!
