The British asked its Collectors to collect district wise data on number of schools and type of education that 
I have reproduced excerpts below. 
The actual situation, which is revealed, was different, if not quite contrary, for at least amongst the Hindoos, 
in the districts of the Madras Presidency (and dramatically so in the Tamil-speaking areas) as well as the two 
districts of Bihar. It was the groups termed Soodras, and the castes considered below them who 
predominated in the thousands of the then still-existing schools in practically each of the areas.’

Adam’s 1st Report on Bengal. Survey of Post 1800 material. His conclusions, one every village had 
atleast one school and in all probability in Bengal and Bihar with 1,50,748 villages, there will still be 
1,00,000 villages that have these schools. Two on the basis of personal observation & evidence 
collected he inferred there were app 100 institutions of higher learning in each district meaning app 
1,800 such institutions and 10,800 scholars in them. 
Adam said that he found a number of genuine, qualified medical practioners in Bengal who analyzed 
the symptoms of the disease before suggesting a cure. 
In Punjab there were 3,30,000 pupils in 1850 as compared to 1,90,000 in 1882 as per Leitner’s 
Report. 
Schools were classified in Sikh, Muslim, Hindu using current descriptions. 
Sanskrit books were used to teach grammar, lexicology, mathematics, medical science, logic, law and 
vedant.
