Two Steps that the Mughal Failed to Take Towards Modernisation

• First, India had a wide range of resources or at least ample capital to import few resources required. The European nations that claimed to be imperial powers required a lot of capital. Europe thus experienced several developments that transformed the history of the world.
• However, these inventions were lacking in India. The Mughals were not able to make use of these resources for the betterment of the nation. Besides, the increasing weakness of the Mughal Empire in the early 18th century also was a set back to the Mughals. Failure to make innovations and lack of knowledge of the environment paved a way for the British to benefit from India's vulnerability.
• Second, the Mughals followed their Islamic books and extended their knowledge on literature, poetry and food. They had no scientific input into the society. There was nothing to think about in terms of inventions or research when it had come to the Mughals. They were foreigners, and they did not try to revive Mauryan thought or Gupta thought school. In general, an intellectual revolution begin by reviving an old contemporary school of thought.
