The purpose behind making English language the medium of imparting education in India was to destroy Indian civilization, culture and national sentiments completely. Through English medium education, the British government wanted to create in Indian society, a group of people who were Indians in blood and complexion, but Englishmen by speech, thought and perspective. The Britishers got considerable success in this goal because Indians, under this new system, forgot their own culture and values and began to ape western culture and fashion in their day to day life.
