  36. 1:52we see the Rise and Consolidation of
  37. 1:55British Power in India in Modern
  38. 1:56History. This is a topic mentioned in
  39. 2:03the syllabus. How did the rise and
  40. 2:07consolidation of British power in India
  41. 2:09affect the social and cultural sectors?
  42. 2:16We have been explaining about the 1850
  43. 2:1957 Sepoy Mutiny and the Karnataka Wars
  44. 2:21in the previous class. In this video,
  45. 2:28we are going to tell you how the
  46. 2:30British Empire was established in India
  47. 2:31and how they came to occupy each region
  48. 2:33. Okay, look, the British rule in India
  49. 2:47did not come all at once. The East
  50. 2:54India Company, which first came as a
  51. 2:56commercial company, gradually expanded
  52. 2:58its power in India through military,
  53. 3:00political, diplomatic and economic
  54. 3:02means. First, we have Captain Hippon
  55. 3:09arriving in the court of Jahangir when
  56. 3:11Jahangir was the Mughal king on a ship
  57. 3:14called Globe; then we have Sir Thomas
  58. 3:16Roe arriving, and the East India
  59. 3:17Company was formed on December 31, 1600
  60. 3:20as a commercial company; then after the
  61. 3:29other Europeans, the Portuguese and the
  62. 3:31Dutch sent them, finally we have talked
  63. 3:33about the wars that took place on
  64. 3:35Indian territory between the French and
  65. 3:37the English, the Anglo, Carnatic Wars,
  66. 3:39and the Carnatic Wars. After that, the
  67. 3:46main thing is that the British Empire
  68. 3:49was established in India, that is, the
  69. 3:51Battle of Plassey took place in Bengal
  70. 3:53on June 23, 1757. If we look carefully
  71. 4:04here, the Battle of Plassey takes place
  72. 4:06between Siraj-ud-Daulah and Robert
  73. 4:17Clive. Robert Clive, we have already
  74. 4:22mentioned the Arcot Feud. In this
  75. 4:25Battle of Plassey, the last independent
  76. 4:28Nawab of Bengal, Siraj-ud-Daulah, the
  77. 4:30last ruler of Bengal, is defeated.
  78. 4:34After his defeat, he is exiled. The
  79. 4:39victory achieved through this battle
  80. 4:41laid the foundation for the
  81. 4:42establishment of the British Empire in
  82. 4:44India, that is, establishing the empire
  83. 4:46means that they are the ones who
  84. 4:48appoint and remove the Nawabs, and then
  85. 4:49occupying each area in a different way.
  86. 4:55After that, the battle that
  87. 4:56strengthened the British Empire in
  88. 4:58India is the Battle of Buxar. This
  89. 5:01Battle of Buxar was fought between Mir
  90. 5:03Kasim Shuja Uddavala II. If all of them
  91. 5:06were an alliance and the British were
  92. 5:08an alliance, the British would win. The
  93. 5:10outcome of this battle completely
  94. 5:14strengthened the British Empire in
  95. 5:16India. Then in 1765, the Treaty of
  96. 5:23Allahabad was signed, and for the first
  97. 5:25time, they got civil rights, which
  98. 5:27means they got the power to collect
  99. 5:29taxes from our land. In this way, they
  100. 5:37occupied each area in a different way.
  101. 5:42First of all, Bengal was the only one.
  102. 5:48If we look at it, the British, who came
  103. 5:50as a trading company, took advantage of
  104. 5:52the local conditions and established a
  105. 5:54strong empire. Since we did not have a
  106. 6:00strong king, they took advantage of
  107. 6:02that opportunity and established a
  108. 6:04kingdom. Okay, look, especially trade,
  109. 6:09military victory, political dominance,
  110. 6:11territorial conquest, this is how the
  111. 6:13establishment of their empire happened.
  112. 6:17The Battle of Plassey is very important
  113. 6:19for us. In 1757, the British first
  114. 6:25established an empire in Bengal. The
  115. 6:32main reason for all this is that
  116. 6:34Aurangzeb died in all places. In 1707,
  117. 6:38Aurangzeb was a strong Mughal king. He
  118. 6:42was not a 21-year-old. After his death,
  119. 6:45the remaining local areas declared
  120. 6:47their independence. Murshid Puli Khan,
  121. 6:55Murshid Khan, established independence
  122. 6:57in Bengal and established a region
  123. 6:59called Murshidabad. After that,
  124. 7:08Alivardi Khan, Alivardi Khan's
  125. 7:10son-in-law Sirajuddaula, Sirajuddaula,
  126. 7:12the last independent Nawab of Bengal.
  127. 7:18Bengal means not only the present-day
  128. 7:20West Bengal, but also a very large area
  129. 7:22, West Bengal, West Bengal, Bihar and
  130. 7:31Orissa. We call all these areas Bengal.
  131. 7:38Okay, what will Sirajuddaula do?
  132. 7:43Sirajuddaula will attack the English,
  133. 7:45that is, when Sirajuddaula is here, we
  134. 7:47will have the Third Anglo-Carnatic War.
  135. 7:52The Third Anglo-Carnatic War will take
  136. 7:55place from 1756 to 63 due to this
  137. 7:57seven-year period. At that time, the
  138. 8:03French in Bengal had Chandranagore,
  139. 8:05Chandranagore, Kashi Bazar, Calcutta,
  140. 8:07and these areas, and they were building
  141. 8:09defensive walls to prevent attacks on
  142. 8:11those areas. When they were building
  143. 8:19defensive walls in his territory, he
  144. 8:21got angry and said, "Who is building
  145. 8:23defensive walls?" Sirajuddaula said in
  146. 8:26Udham. After Sirajuddaula said in Udham
  147. 8:28, the French listened to him but the
  148. 8:30British did not listen. When he did not
  149. 8:33listen, he got angry with Sirajuddola.
  150. 8:35The British started a fight. The fight
  151. 8:37became worse than that. On June 20,
  152. 8:421756, at that time, 1756, the Calcutta
  153. 8:46Dark Room Incident. What is the
  154. 8:58Calcutta Dark Room Incident? The
  155. 9:02Calcutta Dark Room Incident is a story
  156. 9:04about a British man named Halwell who
  157. 9:07says that if he imprisoned all the
  158. 9:09British, about 146 people, in a small
  159. 9:11room measuring 18 x 10 x 14, only 23 of
  160. 9:14them survived. That is, he locked 146
  161. 9:22British people in a small room, out of
  162. 9:28which only 23 survived. This is called
  163. 9:31the Calcutta Dark Room Incident. After
  164. 9:34that, the treaty of Ali Sagar was
  165. 9:36signed between Sirajuddola and the
  166. 9:38English, and Calcutta was named Ali
  167. 9:40Sagar. All these things happened. In
  168. 9:46the context of all these conflicts,
  169. 9:48these disputes and quarrels between
  170. 9:50Siraj-ud-Daulah and the English, the
  171. 9:52Battle of Plassey was fought on June 23
  172. 9:54, 1757. The Battle of Plassey was
  173. 9:57fought between Robert Clive and
  174. 9:58Siraj-ud-Daulah. Look, the date is
  175. 10:05important to us: Where did it take
  176. 10:07place on June 23, 1757? Plassey in
  177. 10:11Bengal. Robert Clive, the Nawab of
  178. 10:16Bengal, represented the British. There
  179. 10:22were conflicts especially over the
  180. 10:24Company's abuse of commercial rights,
  181. 10:26strengthening of forts, political
  182. 10:27interference of the Company, and
  183. 10:29differences between Siraj-ud-Daulah and
  184. 10:31the Company. It would have been better
  185. 10:35if the Company had looked only at
  186. 10:36business; what happened to the Company?
  187. 10:38It became politically involved.
  188. 10:40Siraj-ud-Daulah was defeated in this
  189. 10:43war. Siraj-ud-Daulah's general, then
  190. 10:48his president Mir Jafar, betrayed his
  191. 10:50trust and as a result, he was defeated.
  192. 10:56If Mir Jafar's son Miran captures
  193. 10:58Sirajuddo and hands him over to the
  194. 11:00British, Sirajuddo will also be exiled.
  195. 11:04Okay, then Mir Jafar is appointed as
  196. 11:06the pro-British Nawab. Mir Jafar, Mir
  197. 11:10Jafar is succeeded by Mir Qasim. See,
  198. 11:14through the Battle of Plassey, the
  199. 11:16British became the decisive force in
  200. 11:18the political affairs of Bengal. That
  201. 11:22is, to the point of removing a Nawab
  202. 11:23and appointing a Nawab, to the point of
  203. 11:25changing the Nawab, from intervention
  204. 11:27to domination, the battle that laid the
  205. 11:29foundation for the establishment of the
  206. 11:31British Empire in India is the Battle
  207. 11:33of Plassey. Then the Battle of Buxar,
  208. 11:36which is also important for us. Date:
  209. 11:38October 22, 1764 This took place in a
  210. 11:41place called Buxar. British leader
  211. 11:45Hector Monroe, this alliance is also
  212. 11:47very important. Look at what will
  213. 11:50happen, Siraj Uddaula, this Siraj
  214. 12:04Uddaula will die, after his death, Mir
  215. 12:07Jafar will come, Mir Jafar will be
  216. 12:09replaced by Mir Qasim, the removal of
  217. 12:11Mir Jafar is called the 1760 revolution
  218. 12:13, Mir Jafar will be removed and Mir
  219. 12:16Qasim will be replaced. This Mir Qasim
  220. 12:24is a capable ruler who thinks that the
  221. 12:26British should not interfere in his
  222. 12:28rule, he also changes his capital from
  223. 12:30Murshidabad to Manghir. Who is Mir
  224. 12:35Qasim, what will he do after that, he
  225. 12:37will give a statement that none of the
  226. 12:39Bengal traders need to pay taxes. The
  227. 12:43English will be angry with that
  228. 12:45statement, what are the English, only
  229. 12:47the British should not pay taxes,
  230. 12:48English traders think, but what will he
  231. 12:50do, he will say that everyone does not
  232. 12:52need to pay taxes. As a result, they
  233. 12:58had their quarrels, he was defeated in
  234. 13:00small battles, after his defeat, Mir
  235. 13:02Kasim went to Awadh, in Awadh, he and
  236. 13:05Shuja ud-Daulah similarly formed an
  237. 13:07alliance with us, and in 1764, the
  238. 13:09Battle of Buxar took place. In this
  239. 13:14battle, the British again won. This is
  240. 13:17also very important. Who participated?
  241. 13:26British leader Hector Monroe Mir Kasim
  242. 13:28from Bengal against the British Mir
  243. 13:30Kasim Nawab of Awadh Suja ud-Daulah
  244. 13:33Mughal emperor then If we look at the
  245. 13:35Mughals, Aurangzeb died in 1707, after
  246. 13:38Aurangzeb died in 1707, those who ruled
  247. 13:40from 1707 to 1858 were the Mughals
  248. 13:42again, then in 1764, the second and
  249. 13:45third Shaham Mughal emperor, the
  250. 13:47British won this war. That is, if we
  251. 13:58look here, the Battle of Buxar and the
  252. 14:00Battle of Plassey laid the foundation
  253. 14:02for the British Empire, strengthened it
  254. 14:04and established their power even
  255. 14:05stronger. The Battle of Buxar was
  256. 14:12fought between Robert Clive and the
  257. 14:18Second Sultanate of Bengal. Through
  258. 14:23this, the Company got the civil rights
  259. 14:25of Bengal, Bihar, and Orissa. They got
  260. 14:31very important civil rights. They had
  261. 14:36the power to collect taxes for the
  262. 14:37first time. The Allahabad Treaty was a
  263. 14:43political event. The Battle of Buxar
  264. 14:48laid a strong foundation for political
  265. 14:50dominance. See also: Dual Government in
  266. 15:00Bengal After the Battle of Plassey,
  267. 15:02their dominance increased greatly and
  268. 15:04they brought dual rule in Bengal in
  269. 15:06India. It was introduced by Robert
  270. 15:16Clive and abolished by Warren Hastings.
  271. 15:20In this dual government, the income
  272. 15:47came to the company, but the
  273. 15:48responsibilities came to the Nizam
  274. 16:04Nawab, the Nawab of Bengal, the Nawab
  275. 16:23Next, we have talked about the Carnatic
  276. 16:25Wars in the previous class. These
  277. 16:28Anglo-Carnatic Wars were fought between
  278. 16:30the British and the French. Okay, the
  279. 16:35wars fought between the British and the
  280. 16:37French for supremacy in India ended
  281. 16:39with the First Carnatic War at Exla
  282. 16:40Chapel. The Second Carnatic War ended
  283. 16:48with the Treaty of Pondicherry. The
  284. 16:51Third Carnatic War ended with the
  285. 16:53Treaty of Paris. In this, the Battle of
  286. 16:56Vandiwash and the Battle of 100 Vasi
  287. 16:58took place. The French lost their
  288. 17:01influence after losing this Battle of
  289. 17:02Vandiwash. The Dutch were defeated in
  290. 17:05the Battle of Chinsurah Bedura in 1759.
  291. 17:08The French were defeated in the Battle
  292. 17:11of Vandiwash in 1760. Look at that. The
  293. 17:14Treaty of Paris dealt a severe blow to
  294. 17:20French political dominance in India.
  295. 17:26Next, if we look at the British
  296. 17:27struggle with Mysore, after the Mughals
  297. 17:29, the Wodeyar dynasty ruled Mysore and
  298. 17:31the Wodeyar in the Karnataka region.
  299. 17:38There was Krishnaraja Wodeyar in this
  300. 17:39Wodeyar. He had brothers, and those
  301. 17:44brothers used to rule. Haider Ali, who
  302. 17:50was only named, was a common soldier in
  303. 17:52it, and was the commander of a region
  304. 17:54called Dundigal, and with his amazing
  305. 17:56military skills, he occupied and ruled
  306. 17:58this region. This Haider Ali's son was
  307. 18:04Tipu Sultan. Who was the first
  308. 18:07nationalist, Tipu Sultan? Look around,
  309. 18:12Haider Ali was ruling the Mysore
  310. 18:14Kingdom. As Haider Ali gradually
  311. 18:28developed, differences arose between
  312. 18:29the British on one side, the Marathas
  313. 18:31on the other side, and the Nizams on
  314. 18:33the other side. Because Hyder Ali is
  315. 18:45developing well, he is developing and
  316. 18:47occupying small areas, so the British,
  317. 18:49Marathas and Nizam form an alliance
  318. 18:51against the Hyder Alis. Initially,
  319. 18:58Hyder Ali wins the first Anglo-Mysore
  320. 19:00war. In the second war, he wins the
  321. 19:04first but dies. In the middle, he falls
  322. 19:07ill. Then, when it comes to the third,
  323. 19:10Tipu Sultan comes. When it comes to the
  324. 19:14fourth, Tipu Sultan dies. Okay, look,
  325. 19:19Mysore is also an important obstacle to
  326. 19:21the British expansion. Hyder Ali, Tipu
  327. 19:27Sultan, First, First war, Second war,
  328. 19:30Third war, Four wars are fought in
  329. 19:33total, the first two wars are fought by
  330. 19:36Hyder Ali, then three, four by Tipu
  331. 19:38Sultan, the first is 1767 to 69, the
  332. 19:41second is 80 to 84, the third is 90 to
  333. 19:4492, the fourth is 1799, then Tipu
  334. 19:47Sultan dies. Okay, look at the Treaty
  335. 19:51of Madras, the Treaty of Mangalore, and
  336. 19:54then the Treaty of Srirangapatna. These
  337. 19:57are the treaties, they all come to us.
  338. 20:00In the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War, the
  339. 20:03Treaty of Srirangapatna, Srirangapatna,
  340. 20:06we have 1799. Tipu Sultan dies. With
  341. 20:10this, British dominance in South India
  342. 20:12was strengthened. Okay, next, if we
  343. 20:17look here, Tipu Sultan is a member of
  344. 20:19the French Jacobin Club. He is a
  345. 20:26nationalist, releases new coins and
  346. 20:28calendars, and he also launches rockets
  347. 20:30. He plants the Tree of Freedom in
  348. 20:36Srirangapatna. Okay, we have Tipu
  349. 20:38Sultan next. Wars with the Marathas.
  350. 20:41There were three major wars between the
  351. 20:43British and the Marathas. Anglo Maratha
  352. 20:47War First 75 to 82 Second Anglo Maratha
  353. 20:50War 1803 to 1805 Third Anglo Maratha
  354. 20:52War 1817 to 1880 After 1818, the
  355. 20:55Maratha political dominance was almost
  356. 20:57over and the British also emerged as
  357. 21:00the main political power in India.
  358. 21:07After that, the Subsidiary Alliance See
  359. 21:09the Military Cooperation System The
  360. 21:11military cooperation system means that
  361. 21:13the British provide an army and the
  362. 21:15king bears the cost of that army, that
  363. 21:17is, a region Now first we have the
  364. 21:18Nizam agreeing to the military
  365. 21:20cooperation agreement. When agreed, the
  366. 21:27responsibility of protecting the
  367. 21:29Nizam's territories goes to war with
  368. 21:31the Erewa, the British army comes to
  369. 21:32support the people who signed this
  370. 21:34agreement. That is the military
  371. 21:37cooperation system. Okay? That is, why
  372. 21:40do those who do it with the British,
  373. 21:41that is, the weapons, technology,
  374. 21:43discipline, skill that the British have
  375. 21:45, all these are why we give them an
  376. 21:47Arcot video? If there were only 500
  377. 21:49people, they had enough technology at
  378. 21:51that time to defeat even 10,000 people
  379. 21:53from that side. Therefore, the
  380. 21:57subsidiary alliance was mainly related
  381. 21:59to Lord Wellesley, the Indian king
  382. 22:01should keep the British army in his
  383. 22:03kingdom. Who should bear the cost of
  384. 22:08that army, the king should bear it.
  385. 22:11They should not have independent
  386. 22:12relations with other foreign powers,
  387. 22:14they should not make war or treaty
  388. 22:15without British permission. There was
  389. 22:18also a British resident in the kingdom.
  390. 22:21That is, depending on the circumstances
  391. 22:23at that time, they thought about the
  392. 22:24neighboring kingdoms. But we were not
  393. 22:28all united and wanted to drive them out
  394. 22:30first. That is, think of the Nizams who
  395. 22:33were next door, the Marathas who were
  396. 22:35next door, Karnataka who were next door
  397. 22:37...that is, they looked at this and
  398. 22:39that. They looked at their geographical
  399. 22:42area but did not think broadly. That is
  400. 22:45, if a military cooperation agreement
  401. 22:47is signed, what is the point here
  402. 22:49indirectly? We should not even have
  403. 22:52independent relations with other
  404. 22:54foreign powers, then we should not
  405. 22:55fight without British permission, we
  406. 22:57should not even make agreements, all
  407. 22:59these are there. What happened to the
  408. 23:03independence of the Indian princely
  409. 23:05states? It has gradually decreased.
  410. 23:08Okay, the next doctrine of succession.
  411. 23:14Look at how they annexed the area when
  412. 23:16there were no legitimate heirs.
  413. 23:23Basically, Lord Dalhousie's theory of
  414. 23:25succession is the theory of succession
  415. 23:27of the princely state, in which the
  416. 23:28British government in some cases did
  417. 23:30not recognize the adopted heir in the
  418. 23:32princely states where there was no
  419. 23:34natural heir. What was the first one
  420. 23:40taken? Satara. This is important for us
  421. 23:42. Appa Saheb dies, Appa Saheb has no
  422. 23:45children, no heirs on his behalf. Then
  423. 23:47this area is taken over. Then Jhansi
  424. 23:50and Nagpur are all these. We also think
  425. 23:53of Avadh, but Avadh is a misgovernment,
  426. 23:55the reason why the British Empire is a
  427. 23:57villain. Avadh was a villain in 1856
  428. 24:04due to the misgovernment, but not under
  429. 24:07the doctrine of lapse, the doctrine of
  430. 24:09lapse, Lord Dalhousie, next Punjab, if
  431. 24:12we look at Punjab, the Punjab region
  432. 24:14was a tribe, there were 12 tribes in it
  433. 24:16, Maharaja Ranjit Singh, he all came,
  434. 24:19the Anglo-Sikh wars took place, see,
  435. 24:21after the two Anglo-Sikh wars with the
  436. 24:23Sikhs, Punjab was annexed to the
  437. 24:25British Empire in 1849. When was Punjab
  438. 24:28, 1849, next British victory? What were
  439. 24:39the reasons for political reasons,
  440. 24:40military reasons, economic reasons,
  441. 24:42diplomatic reasons? There was no unity
  442. 24:45among the Indian states. The first
  443. 24:48point is whether we have unity or not.
  444. 24:51They were put in the context of the
  445. 24:52conditions in which we are. There are
  446. 24:54mutual differences. They have British
  447. 24:57diplomacy, modern weapons militarily.
  448. 25:01They have a trained army, efficient
  449. 25:03military leadership, if we lean the car
  450. 25:05in the Anglo-Mass wars, they will lead
  451. 25:07us in the fourth. Then economically,
  452. 25:11control over Bengal's income, economic
  453. 25:13strength as a commercial
  454. 25:14institution-all these are diplomatic
  455. 25:16reasons. Subsidy reliance, exploitation
  456. 25:19of differences between institutions-all
  457. 25:21these are now seen in administration.
  458. 25:23What changes have come to
  459. 25:24administration? The Regulating Act was
  460. 25:26brought (1773). Regulating means
  461. 25:28control. The Regulating Act was the
  462. 25:32first significant control that the
  463. 25:33British Parliament started over the
  464. 25:35administration of the company in India.
  465. 25:38What did it do in this? The Governor of
  466. 25:41Bengal was changed to the Governor
  467. 25:43General of Bengal. First, Warren
  468. 25:46Hastings 'Regulating Act, Charter Acts,
  469. 25:48Council Acts, all these came later. See
  470. 25:51the Supreme Court was established in
  471. 25:54Calcutta under the Act of 1753, and the
  472. 25:56Supreme Court was established in 1773
  473. 25:58under the Act of 74. The British
  474. 26:00Parliament's supervision over the
  475. 26:02administration of the company also
  476. 26:04increased. Pitt's India Act To examine
  477. 26:08the shortcomings in the regulating law,
  478. 26:10the then British Prime Minister Pitt
  479. 26:11brought the Pitt's India Act named
  480. 26:13after him. According to it, the Board
  481. 26:16of Control and the Court of Directors
  482. 26:18came into being. With the Board of
  483. 26:20Control, the British government's
  484. 26:22control over the political affairs of
  485. 26:23the company's commercial affairs was
  486. 26:25strengthened. Okay, the next charter
  487. 26:31acts we have are 1813, 1793, 1813, 33,
  488. 26:3453, all of them are charter acts. 1793,
  489. 26:421813, 1833, 1853, all of them are
  490. 26:48charters, meaning an agreement. After
  491. 26:50that, the Sepoy Mutiny of 18 took place
  492. 26:53. On November 1, 58, the Allahabad
  493. 26:54Proclamation, the Government of India
  494. 26:56Act. After that, we get the Council
  495. 26:59Acts. Since the Council is formed, we
  496. 27:02get the Council Acts. Minto Mala's
  497. 27:04reforms, the corruption of words, all
  498. 27:06these come to us in politics. Look, the
  499. 27:09Chapter Act of 1813 was a big blow to
  500. 27:12the company's commercial monopoly. The
  501. 27:18Company's monopoly on trade with India
  502. 27:20was largely abolished. However, the
  503. 27:23Company continued to have exclusive
  504. 27:25rights over the tea and China trade,
  505. 27:27which meant that the Company's monopoly
  506. 27:29was abolished. Except for tea and China
  507. 27:35trade, it paved the way for Christian
  508. 27:37missions to operate in India. A target
  509. 27:42was set for education per year. One
  510. 27:44lakh rupees per year was set for
  511. 27:46employment. When did the 33 Governor
  512. 27:48General of Bengal do? After the Charter
  513. 27:54Act of 1813, the Governor General of
  514. 27:56Bengal was changed to the Governor
  515. 27:57General of India. What does India mean?
  516. 28:05Not only Bengal, but also the rest of
  517. 28:06the country came under the Governor
  518. 28:08General of India. The Governor General
  519. 28:11of India was effectively established.
  520. 28:13The first Governor of India was Lord
  521. 28:15William Benting. William Benting
  522. 28:17completely put an end to the Company's
  523. 28:19commercial activities. The
  524. 28:21administration of India became more
  525. 28:23centralized. Legal reforms also came.
  526. 28:27After that, in 53, it was extended
  527. 28:29every 20 years, which led to its
  528. 28:31closure. There was some separation
  529. 28:34between legislative and non-legislative
  530. 28:36duties. An open competitive examination
  531. 28:38route was established in the civil
  532. 28:40service. Then came the Government of
  533. 28:46India Act of 1858, which was the first
  534. 28:48thing that happened, which ended the
  535. 28:50Company's rule. The administration of
  536. 28:54India came under the control of the
  537. 28:56Crown and we went under the British Raj
  538. 28:58. The post of Secretary of State for
  539. 29:03India was created. The Council of India
  540. 29:08was formed. The Governor General of
  541. 29:11India was also changed to Viceroy. When
  542. 29:13explaining what Viceroy is with the
  543. 29:15native princely states, it is called
  544. 29:17Viceroy. The first Viceroy was Lord
  545. 29:20Canning. Evolution of administrative
  546. 29:23institutions. Regulating Act. First
  547. 29:26Limitation Control. 84. 1784. Board of
  548. 29:29Control. 1813. A blow to monopoly.
  549. 29:321833. Governor General of India. 53.
  550. 29:35The way for competitive civil surgeons.
  551. 29:37Crown Rule. 1858. What changes came in
  552. 29:41the social field? Ban on Sati. Sati's
  553. 29:44association. 1829. Lord William brings
  554. 29:48a child. In 1829, the practice of Sati
  555. 29:52was legally banned. Raja Rammohan Roy
  556. 29:55also led a strong social culture for
  557. 29:57the abolition of Sati. Raja Rammohan
  558. 30:00Roy fought for the abolition of Sati.
  559. 30:04As a result, in 1829, William Bentong
  560. 30:07brought the Sati Prohibition Act. Okay
  561. 30:12Next Widow Remarriage Act 1856 Ishwar
  562. 30:19Chandra Vidyasagar prominently
  563. 30:21supported widow remarriage. Ishwar
  564. 30:34Chandra Vidyasagar passed the Hindu
  565. 30:36Widows Remarriage Act in 1856. Later,
  566. 30:38female infanticide was banned, if we
  567. 30:41look at it, if the fetus in the womb is
  568. 30:43known to be female, it means killing it
  569. 30:45, removing it. The British government
  570. 30:52has been taking legal steps at various
  571. 30:53times to stop female infanticide. Later
  572. 30:55, Western education was brought in. Due
  573. 30:57to that, we have increased knowledge.
  574. 30:59All these come in minutes. Logical
  575. 31:01thinking, individual freedom buildings,
  576. 31:03the concept of equality, casteist ideas
  577. 31:05, foundational writings, all these are
  578. 31:07known to us. Macaulay's Minute. This is
  579. 31:10very important to us, like the Magna
  580. 31:11Cata of the education system. We have
  581. 31:14one in English, Wood's Dispatch, see
  582. 31:17Macaulay's Minute. In 1835, 1835, he
  583. 31:21supported the policy of giving priority
  584. 31:24to Western education, especially
  585. 31:26English education. The expansion of
  586. 31:30English education, the introduction of
  587. 31:32Western knowledge, the emergence of a
  588. 31:34new educated middle class. Then came
  589. 31:36Wood's Dispatch (the year 1854 is also
  590. 31:39important). Wood's Dispatch is an
  591. 31:43important document in the development
  592. 31:45of the modern education system in India
  593. 31:47. Wood's Dispatch is English. It is
  594. 31:53often called the Magna Cata of English
  595. 31:55Education in India. What did Wood's
  596. 32:00Dispatch do in this? Establishment of
  597. 32:03educational departments, encouragement
  598. 32:05of the establishment of universities,
  599. 32:07organized education from primary to
  600. 32:09higher education, and encouragement of
  601. 32:11women's education. Woods Dispatch also
  602. 32:13gave importance to women's education.
  603. 32:15See above. Later, social reform
  604. 32:18movements took place. Among them were
  605. 32:20Raja Rammohan Roy (abolition of Sati,
  606. 32:23Brahma Samaj), Ishwar Chandra
  607. 32:24Vidyasagar (Vitanta) Premarital
  608. 32:26Marriage, Swami Dayananda Saraswati (
  609. 32:29Arya Samaj), Sir Syed Ahmed Khan (
  610. 32:31modern Muslim education), Jyotirao
  611. 32:33Phule (caste education, social equality
  612. 32:35). We will explain each of them clearly
  613. 32:38in the next video. In their social
  614. 32:43reform movements, the next printing
  615. 32:44machine and newspapers came. The
  616. 32:48printing press, John Gutenberg's
  617. 32:49printing press, newspapers increased,
  618. 32:51the spread of ideas accelerated,
  619. 32:53support for social reform increased,
  620. 32:55and political consciousness also
  621. 32:57increased. The concept of ethnicity
  622. 32:59expanded. The modern press sector has
  623. 33:04increased socio-political consciousness
  624. 33:06, especially if we look at the Samvad
  625. 33:09Kaumudi magazine, whose name is
  626. 33:10Rajaramohan Roy, Samvad Kaumudi,
  627. 33:12Mirat-ul-Akbar, this is also
  628. 33:14Rajaramohan Roy, Kesari, Balgangadhar
  629. 33:16Tilak's magazine, this is Kesari. The
  630. 33:21Hindu nationalist movement played an
  631. 33:23important role in the formation of the
  632. 33:25Hindu nationalist movement. The Hindu
  633. 33:27railway system also came into being.
  634. 33:30Railways increased connectivity. In
  635. 33:351853, the first animal train in India,
  636. 33:37Bombay to Thane, was started for the
  637. 33:39transport of soldiers, for raw
  638. 33:41materials, for market connectivity, for
  639. 33:43administrative control, all these were
  640. 33:45started with the intention of the
  641. 33:47British, but especially for regional
  642. 33:49connectivity, for the leaders of
  643. 33:50nationalist thought to move from one
  644. 33:52region to another. Connectivity also
  645. 33:58helped to increase. The telegraph was
  646. 34:01created. The telegraph also had its
  647. 34:03uses. Later, courts were formed. Indian
  648. 34:06Penal Code, IPC, CPC, and CRPC systems
  649. 34:10came. Overall, if we think positively,
  650. 34:13modern education came. Western
  651. 34:16knowledge came to us. Printing culture
  652. 34:18came. Railways came. The telegraph
  653. 34:21became a demon for social reform
  654. 34:22movements. These indirectly contributed
  655. 34:25to national consciousness. What is
  656. 34:26negative? All these were set up and our
  657. 34:30resources were diverted. Economic
  658. 34:33exploitation took place. Traditional
  659. 34:36industries declined, high pressure on
  660. 34:38agriculture, export of raw materials,
  661. 34:40expansion of the market for British
  662. 34:42goods, use of infrastructure in line
  663. 34:44with the interests of colonial rule,
  664. 34:46and use of social division politically;
  665. 34:48all these are also negative shades. If
  666. 34:54we look later, the laws we mentioned
  667. 34:55are important from the exam point of
  668. 34:57view. Now, look at the MCQ from the
  669. 35:01topics we mentioned. Battle of Plassey
  670. 35:04(June 23, 1757): Between Robert Clive
  671. 35:07and Sirajuddo. Robert Clive's victory,
  672. 35:11Sirajuddin's death. Plassey laid the
  673. 35:13foundation for the establishment of the
  674. 35:15British Empire in India. Battle of
  675. 35:18Buxar (1764): Mir Kasim, Sujauddin,
  676. 35:23Second Shah were all in an alliance;
  677. 35:26British, Hector Munro. He would win,
  678. 35:29British. Who were the British against
  679. 35:33in the next Battle of Buxar? None. You
  680. 35:36have Kasim, Sujad, Shah, Sirajuddin (
  681. 35:39then he died). When did the Bengal
  682. 35:42Diwani rights come to the Company?
  683. 35:44Diwani rights came after the Treaty of
  684. 35:47Allahabad in 1765. Who introduced the
  685. 35:49dual government in 1765? Dual
  686. 35:52government was introduced by Robert
  687. 35:54Clive. It was abolished by Warren
  688. 35:57Hastings. Subsidiary Alliance
  689. 36:05Subsidiary Alliance is the name of Lord
  690. 36:08Welly Docton of Laps Laps is the reason
  691. 36:10why Dalhousie made Avadh a will in 1856
  692. 36:12Avadh Avadh is a misgovernment due to
  693. 36:14which war is the defeat of Next Tipu
  694. 36:17Sultan related to 1799 i.e. the Fourth
  695. 36:19Anglo Mysore War Next What happened
  696. 36:21after the end of the Third Anglo
  697. 36:23Maratha War What happened i.e. British
  698. 36:25rule expanded after the Maratha Wars
  699. 36:27Regulating Act 1773 Pitts India Act If
  700. 36:38we look at this Pitts India Act 1784
  701. 36:40Board of Control was formed. What is
  702. 36:45the main result of the Charter Act 1833
  703. 36:47i.e. the post of Governor General of
  704. 36:48India was brought in. Okay Next India
  705. 36:57who is William Benting The main result
  706. 36:59of the Government of India Act 1858
  707. 37:01According to the 1858 Act, the
  708. 37:03Company's rule ended and the Crown
  709. 37:05administration began, the British did
  710. 37:07not come to power. India's first
  711. 37:12Viceroy Lord Canning Lord Canning Who
  712. 37:14banned the practice of Sati in 1829?
  713. 37:20William Benting Widows Remarriage Act
  714. 37:23Esu Chanda Vidyasagar Lord Dalhousie OK
  715. 37:251856 Remember the Macaulay Minute.
  716. 37:31Macaulay Minute came in 1835, Wood's
  717. 37:34Dispatch 1854 1835 Macaulay Minute,
  718. 37:37Wood's Dispatch 1854 Those two are
  719. 37:40important to us. On which route did the
  720. 37:44first passenger train run in India?
  721. 37:46Bombay Baita Taane (1853). If we look
  722. 37:49at the correct pair, Wellesley: Dock of
  723. 37:52Laps. No Dock of Laps not Dalhousie
  724. 37:55Subsidies not William Benting Sati
  725. 37:57Avyashan Sati cohabitation ban happened
  726. 37:59during William Benting's time. Next,
  727. 38:02what is Wood's Dispatch commonly called
  728. 38:04? Magna Cata of Indian Education System
  729. 38:07. Woods Dispatch is like Magna Cat in
