India has been credited to have developed philosophy, mathematics, science, and technology of a very high order, which had attracted scholars from all over the world. India's contribution to the march of civilization goes back several thousand years."
"Before the advent of Britishers, Indian goods were internationally recognized for their quality and craftsmanship.

Historical records establish the level of progress and prosperity attained by India before the advent of the Europeans," the governor added.
