Answer:here u go :)....~ 18th century is usually regarded as the begining of modern Age in Europe. Talking about India, various historians have divided the history of the country in various ways.

~ British historians divided the Indian history into Hindu, Muslim and British periods. Some historians divided it into ancient, medieval and modern period. However, it has been advocated by several historians that it is a periodisation that is borrowed from the West where the modern period was associated with the growth of all the forces of modernity – science, reason, democracy, liberty and equality. Medieval was a term used to describe a society where these features of modern society did not exist.

~ This periodisation does not apply to India because she was under the British rule where liberty, freedom and justice was denied to the natives. Hence, this period cannot be termed as 'modern'. It can be termed as 'colonial'.

~It is only because the modern age in Europe began in the 18th century, that several historians have also adopted the same timeline for India
