70% of India’s population was educated before British rule : Sarsanghchalak
Karnal (Haryana) – H.H. Sarsanghchalak Mohanji Bhagwat, while speaking during the inauguration of a multi-specialty hospital in Atma Manohar Jain Aradhana Temple Complex in Karnal on Sunday, said, “Before the British rule, our country’s 70% population was educated and there was no unemployment. Whereas in England, only 17% of people were educated. They implemented their education model here and implemented our model in their country. Hence 70% of people in England became educated, while India was left with just 17% of its population educated.”
