Question asked on INDIA & BRITAIN: KEVIN PETERSON asked: I graduated from the first Engineering College in Kerala founded by a British Major T H Mathewman in 1939. Shashi Tharoor, you have mentioned Britain owing reparation to India. But what about all the skills in engineering and manufacturing India acquired, the administrative and democratic processes it inherited, the infrastructure left behind and most of all, the rapid education of the Indian people of which you are an excellent and outstanding example? Surely, no one can put a price on these intangible values that were gained during the British rule in India, and propelled the country to its present position as one of the leading countries in the world?
