The motive behind the introduction of English education in India was to raise a class which was Indian in colour but English in taste.
Answer explanation
The motive behind the introduction of English education in India, particularly as articulated by Lord Macaulay, was to create a class of people who were "Indian in colour but English in taste, in opinion, in morals, and in intellect."
This was part of the British policy to establish a class of educated Indians who would assist in administering British rule and act as intermediaries between the British government and the Indian population. This approach aimed to promote loyalty to the British Empire while maintaining control over Indian society.
