to establish their hold over Indian Territory. They did these through numerous wars,

forced treaties, annexations of and alliances with the various regional powers all over

the country. Their new administrative and economic policies helped them consolidate

their control over the country. Their land revenue policies help them keep the poor

farmers in check and get huge sums as revenues in return. They forced the

commercialisation of agriculture with the growing of various cash crops and the raw

materials for the industries in the Britain. With the strong political control, the British

were able to monopolise the trade with India. They defeated their foreign rivals in

trade so that there could be no competition. They monopolised the sale of all kinds

of raw materials and bought these at low prices whereas the Indian weavers had

to buy them at exorbitant prices. Heavy duties were imposed on Indian goods entering

Britain so as to protect their own industry. Various investments were made to improve

the transport and communication system in the country to facilitate the easy transfer

of raw materials from the farms to the port, and of finished goods from the ports

to the markets. Also, English education was introduced to create a class of educated

Indians who would assist the British in ruling the country and strengthen their political

authority. All these measures helped the British to establish, consolidate and continue

their rule over India.
