Shashi Tharoor's views on postcolonialism

Shashi Tharoor is member of parliament, he given postcolonial argument. He written a book on that 'An Era of Darkness'. He asserts that Britishers are not developers of any colonies. According to him real Thugs Of Hindustan were Britishers, in the name of free trade they are looting the Indians. In a way the word loot is a Hindi word and they taking the word in their dictionary. This is how Shashi Tharoor make a satire on British Empire.




Let's see Shashi Tharoor's view on postcolonialism

1) Shashi Tharoor's view on British empire on India.
They come from rich British countries. There are many people who live the life in poverty after independence only because of Britishers. They doing loot in India , sending Indian important thing to their country and became rich.
So he said that growth of education and growth of people from 1900 to 1947 was 0.001 percent. He talks about life and situation about India after independence. 




Britishers came for making India poor and poor.Indians had economical damage at that time.we all knows that Britshers came for the trade but they are ruled over India. Tharoor very clearly says that British is wealthy because of India. Tharoor says there are Mughal rulers in India they also looted India but they spent only in India, while the Britshers sent all to thier country and make India poor and poor. The India which is exporter in the beginning after that they make it importer.
 

In India 15 to 20% people died by starvation. He gave example of Bengal family. During the Second World war - 4 million people died because of starvation.
Britishers make money from the poor Indians by various kind of Taxes and make their own country rich, day by day ..
Thank you.....
