The people of India resisted the British colonialism, and they were reluctant to support any services b y the foreign government. These trends slowly changed as the natives were educated according to the British system. They then decided to serve in Indian civil and military services and lessen their hardships by taking part in government affairs. That is why Indian Medical Services flourished in the late 19th and early 20th century. There were dramatic improvements in medical and sanitary conditions in British India. IMS efficiently coped up with deadly epidemics like the plague and cholera. Almost all the diseases prevalent at that time in India like small pox, leprosy, and malaria were controlled successfully. There were very few epidemics in later years and many of the diseases were almost eradicated. Officers and researchers of Indian Medical Services contributed a lot to the study and prevention of diseases. The role of medical officers serving in India should be better judged by their aspirations, priorities, and limitations. Although the archetypical colonial design of medical services, Eurocentric policies, and neglect of the indigenous population failed to relieve the plight of the poor for many years, the work completed during that period of time formed the basis of what we have achieved today to improve the health of people.

European colonialism was remarkably benevolent. The only example of colonialism really killing people is the Congo. Other than that Europe's only "crime" was not dismantling pre-existing systems of taxation and feudalism. Also introduction of sanitation in Africa massively reduced infant mortality which is why population began growing there after 1850.

So Panopticon do you think Britain could pay for public healthcare for 240 million Indians by taxing Britain alone?

i wish you the best of luck with your new ideology which comes to a confused standstill after questions like "how do you deal with pollution", though
if the democide in india is justified based on advances in healthcare there, the same can be said for mao and stalin
