Britisher has built the network of roads and railways for their convenience but it also benefited Indians as they were able to came in contact with each other from different part of the country. Not only the administrative policies but many reasons were there behind establishment of Indian Constitution, like the economic exploitation. Britishers has taken over the wealth and exploited India by all means. They imposed new taxes traditional industries declined which led to rise in unemployment also capitalists exploited the working class which led to growth of discontent among people. However there were few things that Indians learnt from the Britishers. Due to spread of western education new ideas such as justice, liberty, equality, democracy were introduced and also philosophies like rationalism, scientific attitude, humanity were accepted by Indians. There were many Indian and Western scholars who started study of Indian culture. After understanding that we have rich culture many Indians were awakened with the sense of identity. Also during this period when Indians were expanding and growing their knowledge there were English and vernacular newspapers which gave rise to social and political awakening to the masses. It brought hope among people that if they demand through constitutional methods then the British will give justice to them .That is the reason, during the session of Indian National Congress different resolutions were put forward by our leaders such as job for educated Indians, equality and to get equal opportunity to be represented in provincial legislature.
