Was education in India denied to lower castes for 5000 years?
Or was there no education at all before the British arrived? The British conducted extensive surveys on indigenous education in the 1820s-30s.

The truth about our forgotten past will make you rethink our very own history….. 🧵👇 When the British arrived, there were thousands of schools known as pathshalas across the country.

📌 British official G.L. Prendergast noted: “There is hardly a village in which there is not at least one school.”

Imagine being born into a group labeled "untouchable," not for your beliefs, actions, or even physical differences. Barred from public spaces, marked as impure, and shunned by society.

This wasn’t just hate speech. It was a call to action.

During WWII, Japanese planes airdropped propaganda leaflets over India in 1944, urging Pan-Asian unity against European colonialism.

They exposed the Bengal Famine, the destruction of India’s cotton industry, and British exploitation.

🧵 Drive Out the English from Asia

Swami Vivekananda faced an absurd question during his American tour in the 1890s:

"Do Hindu mothers really throw their babies to crocodiles in the Ganges?"
