The British Raj created modern India. Without the Raj, there simply wouldn't be an India, it would likely be several different countries at best.

Possible. But the nazi like cruelty of the British should not be forgotten.They effectively starved to death millions every year they ruled India.

Oh really!!!! If that's true then its payback time!!!Let give the stupid queen and her husband the Gandhi peace prize for spreading peace and democracy!!!!/sarcasm

The only reason british came to India was to exploit her wealth.They modernised and united india for their own benefit. So stop making a virtue of necessity !!!
