The British Makeover of India by Meenakshi Jain - Book Review
from The Historylogy Podcast · host Shinil Subramanian Payamal
Early officials of the East India Company were surprised to discover that indigenous institutions of judicial redress had survived in a surprisingly good state during the centuries of “Tartar” rule. They noted that those institutions had largely remained beyond the purview of the medieval state, and had well served the needs of the populace. Subsequently, Company-men observed the functioning of indigenous judicial institutions in the areas under their control and cautioned against any transplantation from Britain.Order links of the book 'The British Makeover of India: Judicial and Other Indigenous Institutions Upturned' below:AryanBooks.com:HardcoverAmazon India:HardcoverAmazon USA:HardcoverAnd please don't forget to checkout Historylogy.com for latest book reviews and tidbits from the pages of history.Please feel free to our social media ID's for latest updates.
