English education, according to Mahatma Gandhi, created a sense of

inferiority in the minds of Indians. It made them see Western civilisation

as superior, and destroyed their pride in their own culture. Thus charmed

by the West and by everything coming from the West, the Indians

educated under the colonial system would end up being the admirers of British rule in India; thus, willingly forgetting their enslavement, and

enslaving themselves further.
