Impact of British Rule in India ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Negative Effects The British held almost all political and economic  power  and set restrictions on  Indian  owned  industries. Many villagers lost self- sufficiency due to the British enforcing  cash  crops.  Most British carried  racist  attitudes towards the Indians in the country, and  adopted policies which did not abide by many  religious  practices in India.  Traditional  Indian life was threatened due to British superiority.  Policies and Regulation At first the East India Company ruled with little interference from the British  government until the 19 th  century. The company employed its own army and even had  an internal government structure. The British used India for the gain of Britain’s  Economy, and set up restrictions that didn’t allow India to operate on its own.
The Rise of Indian Nationalism
You knew it was going to happen… ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Nationalism Surfaces in India: the Indian National Congress and Muslim League form Nationalist feelings began arising in the country due to modernization and the taking up of western ideas. It wasn’t long before the groups wanting to self govern themselves. Two Major Nationalist Groups formed: The Indian National Congress In 1885, the  Indian National Congress  formed- comprised mainly of Hindus wanting to break free from British rule. The Muslim League In 1906, the  Muslim League  formed- another nationalist group which focused on specific concerns for the Muslim minority living in India.

GANDHI Mohandas Gandhi, often called the Mahatma or “ Great Soul ” was born in India on October 2, 1869.  To a merchant or  Vaishya  cast mother and father of the Hindu religion.  Because he came from money, his parents were able to send him to England for a better  education . He and his followers threw the King of England and his great armies out of India without using weapons of any kind - unless you call a cotton spinning wheel a weapon!
Gandhi as a Young Barrister in Natal After Law school he moved to S. Africa as a  lawyer.   While here  he witnessed how badly the  white  South Africans were treating people of color,  Indians  like himself and  black Africans , he decided to do something about it.

Gandhi Spinning Cloth He and others believed India should have its  freedom  and get rid of the English rulers and their army. So he taught his people to  fight  back at the English - but not with  guns  or other weapons. He didn’t want to hurt or kill anyone. One way he taught his Indian friends to go  against the English was by making their own cloth instead of buying cloth from the English. You see the English would have cotton grown in India, then they would have it picked by Indians, put on ships, ship it to England where it would be spun into thread, woven into cloth, shipped back to India and sold to the Indian people for a higher price. In fact, the English had  laws  that forced the Indians to buy only their  cloth . Gandhi said, “ NO WAY , that is not fair!!” Why should we have to buy back our own cotton cloth?! Let’s spin it ourselves!” So he learned how to  spin  cotton thread on a spinning  wheel  - like in this picture - and weave it into cloth. He and his followers  taught  this old fashioned way of spinning and weaving to thousands and thousands of other Indians.

Mohandas Gandhi A man named  Mohandas Gandhi  led the Indian Independence movement. His strategy of  non-violent protest  convinced millions of Indians to support independence. He used  fasts ,  peaceful protest marches , and  boycotts  of British goods. India was finally granted independence from  Britain in 1947.  Gandhi was assassinated in 1948 by a Hindu extremist who was upset that Ghandi had helped bring all religious groups in India together to share power in the new government. "An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind"... Gandhi
Mohandas Gandhi Can you think of any other great leaders in Modern History that have followed Gandhi’s strategy of  Passive Resistance  ?
Before India became an independent country,  India’s  Muslims  were afraid they would not have a say in the new government, once Britain granted independence.  To avoid a civil war, the British government agreed to the  partition of India . In 1947, India gained independence, and the country of  Pakistan  was formed for  Muslims .  About  10 million  people crossed the border into Pakistan. Soon after these 2 countries were formed, other countries in the region gained their independence from  Britain  as well.

The Partition of India August 14, 1947
What is the Partition of India? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Above: A current day map of India
Partition!   India was formed out of the mostly  Hindu  regions and Pakistan was formed out of the mainly  Muslim  regions. Pakistan was formed in two dominions- East Pakistan and West Pakistan, which were separated geographically by  India .
Basic Maps of the Partition These two maps show how India was divided after gaining independence from the British in 1947. The first shows India under British rule, before the partition. The second shows how the region was divided after gaining independence and the breakaway East Pakistan (now  Bangladesh ) gained its independence from West Pakistan ( Pakistan  today) in 1971 through the Bangladesh Liberation War.
Impact and Aftermath of Partition The partition of India left both India and Pakistan  devastated . Riots erupted, and widespread  looting  broke out. Women were raped and battered by both the Hindus and Muslims, and trains full of  battered women and children would arrive between the borders of India and Pakistan daily. Refugee train of Sikhs heading to India Right:.
Impact and Aftermath of Partition Over 15 million  refugees  were forced into regions completely new to them. Even though they shared the same  religion of their new home, they still had not lost the  bond  to the region their family and ancestors grew up in. The provinces of Bengal and Punjab were divided causing outrage in many Muslims, Hindus, and Sikhs alike. Man carrying wife and family across the border.
Impact and Aftermath of Partition Even after almost six decades after the partition, India and Pakistan have still not healed from the  wounds  left by the partition.  India and Pakistan have been to war twice since the partition, and Pakistan suffered the bloody war of the breaking away of East Pakistan into Bangladesh. The two countries are still arguing over the landlocked region of  Kashmir . Many believe the partition not only broke the unity of India, but also took away the sense of belonging to many people who were tore apart from their native regions.

  • 18. GANDHI Mohandas Gandhi, often called the Mahatma or “ Great Soul ” was born in India on October 2, 1869. To a merchant or Vaishya cast mother and father of the Hindu religion. Because he came from money, his parents were able to send him to England for a better education . He and his followers threw the King of England and his great armies out of India without using weapons of any kind - unless you call a cotton spinning wheel a weapon!
  • 19. Gandhi as a Young Barrister in Natal After Law school he moved to S. Africa as a lawyer. While here he witnessed how badly the white South Africans were treating people of color, Indians like himself and black Africans , he decided to do something about it.

  • 21. Gandhi Spinning Cloth He and others believed India should have its freedom and get rid of the English rulers and their army. So he taught his people to fight back at the English - but not with guns or other weapons. He didn’t want to hurt or kill anyone. One way he taught his Indian friends to go against the English was by making their own cloth instead of buying cloth from the English. You see the English would have cotton grown in India, then they would have it picked by Indians, put on ships, ship it to England where it would be spun into thread, woven into cloth, shipped back to India and sold to the Indian people for a higher price. In fact, the English had laws that forced the Indians to buy only their cloth . Gandhi said, “ NO WAY , that is not fair!!” Why should we have to buy back our own cotton cloth?! Let’s spin it ourselves!” So he learned how to spin cotton thread on a spinning wheel - like in this picture - and weave it into cloth. He and his followers taught this old fashioned way of spinning and weaving to thousands and thousands of other Indians.

He used fasts , peaceful protest marches , and boycotts of British goods. India was finally granted independence from Britain in 1947. Gandhi was assassinated in 1948 by a Hindu extremist who was upset that Ghandi had helped bring all religious groups in India together to share power in the new government. "An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind"... Gandhi
  • 29. Mohandas Gandhi Can you think of any other great leaders in Modern History that have followed Gandhi’s strategy of Passive Resistance ?
  • 30. Before India became an independent country, India’s Muslims were afraid they would not have a say in the new government, once Britain granted independence. To avoid a civil war, the British government agreed to the partition of India . In 1947, India gained independence, and the country of Pakistan was formed for Muslims . About 10 million people crossed the border into Pakistan. Soon after these 2 countries were formed, other countries in the region gained their independence from Britain as well.

  • 36. Basic Maps of the Partition These two maps show how India was divided after gaining independence from the British in 1947. The first shows India under British rule, before the partition. The second shows how the region was divided after gaining independence and the breakaway East Pakistan (now Bangladesh ) gained its independence from West Pakistan ( Pakistan today) in 1971 through the Bangladesh Liberation War.
  • 37. Impact and Aftermath of Partition The partition of India left both India and Pakistan devastated . Riots erupted, and widespread looting broke out.

  • 38. Impact and Aftermath of Partition Over 15 million refugees were forced into regions completely new to them. Even though they shared the same religion of their new home, they still had not lost the bond to the region their family and ancestors grew up in. The provinces of Bengal and Punjab were divided causing outrage in many Muslims, Hindus, and Sikhs alike. Man carrying wife and family across the border.
  • 39. Impact and Aftermath of Partition Even after almost six decades after the partition, India and Pakistan have still not healed from the wounds left by the partition. India and Pakistan have been to war twice since the partition, and Pakistan suffered the bloody war of the breaking away of East Pakistan into Bangladesh. The two countries are still arguing over the landlocked region of Kashmir . Many believe the partition not only broke the unity of India, but also took away the sense of belonging to many people who were tore apart from their native regions.
