BRITAIN’S GIFT TO INDIA
“Peace has been Britain’s greatest contribution to India,” asserted Sir Denys Bray in a recent address. “Not without many a struggle was the Pax Britannica made to prevail, or India brought for the first time as one country within her mighty confines. Nor, of course ws the work of consolidation the work of British hands alone. Much of it was done in actual alliance with Indians: all of it with Indian assitance. Our work in India has throughout been a partnership, far more close, far more real, as one looks back on it, than either Indian or Englishmen felt at the time. With peace came the spread of British administration, slowly converting old-world India into the great India of today.”
