Question

‘‘Black towns were in contrast to white towns in colonial India.’’ Explain the statement with examples.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The British created separate areas for ‘Black’ people and ‘White’ people. These racial distinctions grew more as British took more control over India. The Black towns consisted of Indians, who bought large lands as a future investment and threw lavish parties during festivals. The Black town for British came to symbolise choas and filth. They took many precautions to avoid diseases being spread to White areas, by implementing more sanitation and public health laws.
