Introduction The westerners came here with the whole and sole mission to rule this country which was rich in all respects. They wanted to propagate their religion so that the people of this ancient most civilisation may also be converted into their fold. To rule this country politically, it was necessary for them to establish their racial, ideological and historical superiority upon the people of this country. That is why there was a deliberate attempt on the part of European intelligentsia in the 17th and 18th centuries to present a distorted picture of Indian history, culture and literature so that an intellectual crisis might be declared in this country. Under the cover of such a crisis they wanted to, as was done by Macaulay, enforce upon us their education so that Indians, bereft of their cultural richness and superiority in the past, might switch over to their faith and pave the way for their permanent settlement and rule in this country.
