The result of the introduction of English was quite contrary to Britishers expectations. For Indians, Western education opened a new window to the West through which came the new ideas of Nationalism, democracy, liberalism and humanism. Educated Indians learnt about the American and French revolutions, about the unification of Germany and Italy and about the right of the people to overthrow an autocratic Government. The slogan of ‘liberty’, ‘equality’ and ‘fraternity’ inspired them to action. Educated Indians now studied the political system of western nations and were moved by the aspiration of Self-Government and representative institution.
