Q. 2. How important are dates in the
study of history ?
Q.2 HOW DID THR BRITISH COLONISE INDIAN TERRIBLE

Q.1=Dates are important, as they note when certain events happened. This is very important because history is recorded chronologically. It helps to know that one event happened before another event so that one can examine the relationship between events. Dates also serve to mark periods in history.

Again, that single comparison is not dispositive, but it hardly favors the British record in India.
And:
Another possible comparison is between British-ruled India and India’s “native states,” namely the numerous territories and principalities where British involvement in direct rule was minimal. To be sure, those regions still were embedded in a broader nexus of British control, and there is no comprehensive database. Nonetheless, historian Jon Wilson, in his recent book “India Conquered: Britain’s Raj and the Chaos of Empire,” offered this assessment:
