Annihilated?

British administration was beneficial for the Indian economy. After the British left, the Indian economy declined very significantly. In 1900, India was ranked the #36 country in the world by GDP per capita. Today, it is ranked #135, right below Nigeria.

To put that in perspective: if India were #36 today, it would be comparable to Israel (#35) and Spain (#33).
