Answer 2

Explanation:

James Mill published a three-volume work, A History of British India in 1817. He was a Scottish economist and political philosopher. In his work, he divided the Indian history into three periods of Hindu, Muslim and British. ... Historians have divided the Indian history into- ancient, medieval, modern, colonial.The problem with the periodisation of Indian history by James Mill is that he divided the Indian history into Hindu, Muslim and the British period. It has been argued by many historians that it is not correct to periodise the Indian history on the basis of religion of the rulers. For example, when the Hindu kings ruled in ancient India, many religions existed peacefully. Similarly, it was not correct to periodise medieval India as Muslim History since people belonging to different faiths coexisted during this time. Such periodisation which was based on the religion of the rulers suggests that the lives, practices and the culture of the other people do not matter. Mill also sought to show that before the advent of the British, all the Asiatic societies were at lower level of civilisation.
