Wow thank you so much for your kindness. However, the fact remains that all of these acts were done to help the British Empire and not the Indian citizens. The rail networks were built to facilitate the transport of Indian raw materials back to England. It's as if a burglar comes into the apartment and takes all your wealth but mows your lawn and then the thief claims that they have well kept lawn thanks to him. That's not a valid argument. The fact remains that everything the Britishers did they did for their own personal gain and profit and any resultant benefits were more like side benefits. Also for the record the rails were paid for using Indian taxpayer money and in huge net profit to British commonwealth. The Indians were literally forced to pay to help Britishers rob them. And also several countries have successful rail networks without having to be colonised to have one
India may not be progressing as fast as China, nor is military strengths comparable but the fact remains that India is STILL a democracy. The largest democracy in the world in fact. Here people have a voice and they have freedom as opposed to China which oppresses it's people to get ahead in the world. As for world politics there are a lot less enemies India has as compared to China. China has conflict of interest with Tibet, Arunanchal Pradesh, South China Sea and many more. It is also an active supporter of North Korea with its insane dictator. Maybe in quantifiable terms China may be ahead but is it all worth it if the people ultimately have no choice and the country works on purely nationalistic motives?
