A British administrator named Sir Herbert Risley worked in India in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He divided the Indian ethnic group into 7 categories. The classification system was criticized as:

  • It was based on physical characteristics including skin tone, facial features, and hair type as well as language and culture.
  • His categorization scheme, nevertheless, drew criticism for being both scientifically flawed and for upholding racist and colonial notions.
  • There is no one agreed-upon number of Indian ethnic groups, and the modern social and cultural classification of these groups is based on a variety of characteristics including language, religion, geography, and cultural customs.
  • Any classification scheme would be an oversimplification given the complexity of Indian civilization and the diversity of its population.
