Explanation:
a) Official documents reflect what authorities thought, what they were interested in, and what they want to preserve for the country's future development. Newspapers aren't regarded as official documents.
b) The first complete census was done in 1881, after being conducted every 10 years since 1872 under British Viceroy Lord Mayo. Since 1949, it has been carried out by the Ministry of Home Affairs of the Government of India's Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India.
c) Rennell created the first near-accurate map of India and published A Bengal Atlas (1779), which was critical to British strategic and administrative interests.
d) Indeed, James Mill proposed that the British capture all of India in order to assure the Indian people's education and happiness. According to James Mill, India could not advance without British assistance.
e) India was first colonized by the British during the middle of the 18th century. This is due to the British, or the East India Trading Company, establishing their first major footing in India only after defeating Nawab Siraj ud Daulah in the battle of Plassey in 1757, so becoming a colonial power.
