Our Indian Protectorate

Our Indian Protectorate by Charles Lewis Tupper examines the relationship between Britain and its colonial territories in India. The book explores the British Empire’s role in maintaining order, governance, and protection over Indian states, particularly princely states under British suzerainty. Tupper discusses the dynamics of British rule, its impact on Indian society, and the challenges of administration. The work reflects the colonial mindset of the time, defending British actions while portraying India as a “protectorate” under British oversight.
