2. They ended Moslem domination in India and liberated Hinddus from 1200-year long subjugation that eventually led to the rise of Hinddu intellectual class who could eventually fight for the freedom of India.
3. British built excellent dams, bridges, railways, roads, etc which unheard in the rest of Asia (during 19th century).
4. British opened many universities and colleges in India, which helped Hinddus to rise as an intellectual class.
5. British-introduced English helped India to become a tech-superpower in the world today.
6. British rule considerably weakened the barbaric caste-system and superstitions, even though remnants of the system remain.
7. Due to better medical services, death rate dropped and life-span increased.
8. Railways, postal services, modern education, English medicine, etc rapidly improved the standards and quality of life.
9. British rule gave an equitable justice system whereas before that only village landlords decide in favor of few elite.
10. British rule altogether gave a new direction to Indians who were mired in ignorance, superstitions, caste-barbarity and opened an era of modern civilization in India.
