Under the colonial regime, basic infrastructures such as railways, ports, water transport, posts and telegraphs did develop. However, the real motive behind this development was not to provide basic amenities to the people but to subserve various colonial interests. Roads constructed in India prior to the advent of the British rule were not fit for modern transport. The roads that were built primarily served the purposes of mobilising the army within India and drawing out raw materials from the countryside to the nearest railway station or the port to send these to far away England or other lucrative foreign destinations. There always remained an acute shortage of all-weather roads to reach out to the rural areas during the rainy season. Naturally, therefore, people mostly living in these areas suffered grievously during natural calamities and famines.
The British introduced the railways in India in 1850 and it is considered as one of their most important contributions. The railways affected the structure of the Indian economy in two important ways. On the one hand, it enabled people to undertake long-distance travel and thereby break geographical and cultural barriers while, on the other hand, it fostered commercialisation of Indian agriculture which adversely affected the self-sufficiency of the village economies in India. The volume of India’s exports undoubtedly expanded but its benefits rarely accrued to the Indian people. The social benefits, which the Indian people gained owing to the introduction of the railways, were thus outweighed by the country’s huge economic loss.

जिनमें सहिष्णुता की भावना होती है, केवल ऐसे लोग ही अध्यापक होने योग्य होते हैं। जिनका बच्चों से प्यार भरा लगाव होता है, उनमें धैर्य स्वभावत: आ जाता है। अध्यापाकों को जिस अन्तर्निहित गम्भीर समस्या से जूझना पड़ता है, वह यह है कि उन्हें जिनको देखना है वे शक्ति और प्रभुता में उनकी बराबरी के नहीं होते। अध्यापक के लिए एकदम तुच्छ या बिना किसी कारण के या फिर वास्तविक की बजाय किसी काल्पनिक कारण के चलते अपने छात्रों के सामने धैर्य खो देना, उनकी खिल्ली उड़ाना, उन्हें अपमानित या दण्डित करना एकदम आसान और सम्भव है। जो एक निर्बल अधीन राष्ट्र पर शासन करते हैं, उनमें न चाहते हुए भी गलत काम करने की प्रवृत्ति पायी जाती है। उसी तरह ऐसे अध्यापक होते हैं जो बच्चों को के ऊपर अपने प्रभुत्व का शिकार हो जाते हैं। जो शासन के अयोग्य होते हैं, उन्हें न केवल कमजोर लोगों पर अन्याय करते हुए कोई अपराध-बोध नहीं होता, बल्कि ऐसा करने में उन्हें एक खास तरह का मजा मिलता है। बच्चे अपनी माँ की गोद में कमजोर, असहाय और अज्ञानी होते हैं। माता के हृदय में स्थित प्रचुर प्यार ही उनकी रक्षा की एकमात्र गारण्टी होता है। इसके बावजूद हमारे घरों में इस बात के उदाहरण कम नहीं कि कैसे हमारे स्वाभाविक प्यार पर धीरज का अभाव और उद्धत प्राधिकार विजय प्राप्त कर लेते हैं और बच्चों को अनुचित कारणों से दण्डित होना पड़ता है।
