Question

why did india became poor after independence from british.​

Answer 1

It’s undeniable that India lost its position as one of the great trading areas of the world, and was poorer after colonial rule than before it. But to put the blame squarely on the shoulders of the British is to give a tiny minority in charge of a minimal state a little too much credit. The real culprit, I argue, was market forces tilted to favour the West — a beast that we still struggle with today.

Answer 2

Answer:

BY THE TIME BRITISHERS LEFT INDIA , THEY TOOK ALMOST EVERY POSSIBLE THING

It is due to drain of wealth of Britain , increased import of raw materials , tough competition faced by our industries and India being treated as a dumping ground for the goods manufactured in Britain that is the British Manufactured goods .

Britain drained out over $45 trillion from India
