Lord Macula, a touch-bearer in the path of
colonial progress, re-commended the spread of western learning through the medium of the
English language. What emerged was a system of education with ultimate objective of
securing servants for public administration, diverting young men and women from the study
of oriental to occidental literature, and arousing in young hearts a passion for western
knowledge and culture. This book provides an alternative in Swaraj (Self rule)
envisaged through primary education imparted in the Bose Foundation School at Kashi.
