Well this ain't from the past papers but its super easy
-Firstly british were interested in India because of the great wealth it possessed.
-Secondly the climate of India suited the British who were now tired of cold climate.
-Thirdly all other Europeans had find the market to trade with and would not let any other European share power with it so british turned to India instead for trading.
Hope this helps !! just elaborate the points and your done !! :)

Re: HISTORY Rare questions !!

it would also be a point that they wanted to establish a strategic port to protect there interests there and in the far east
they first came to East Indies (Indonesia) but the dutch had established there control so they turned to subcontinent as alternative

Re: HISTORY Rare questions !!

THE BRITISH WERE FEARFUL OF RUSSIAN EXPANSION TOWARDS AFGHANISTAN, THEREFORE TO EXPAND THEIR CONTROL AND TO ESTABLISH A STRATEGIC PORT THERE AND IN THE FAR EAST, THEY DECIDED TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE SUBCONTINENT.

BUT PLEASE TELL WHAT DOES THE QUESTION MEANS??

"WHY WERE THE BRITISH INTERESTED IN INDIA" = "WHY DID THE BRITISH DECIDED TO TAKE CONTROL OF AFFAIRS OF THE EAST INDIA COMPANY?"

OR DOES IT MEAN THIS

"WHY WERE THE BRITISH INTERESTED IN INDIA" = "WHY DID THE EAST INDIA COMPANY GOT INVOLVED IN THE SUBCONTINENT??"

hmmm a difficult question indeed
-Regional languages were promoted to win the support of the people who spoke these languages.
-All the regional languages were promotes so none of people would rebel that their language is not promoted.
-These were also promoted to show that the government wasn't just only promoting national language but also the regional one's.

Re: HISTORY Rare questions !!

these three points are explanation of same point
these are the reasons for promotion of each language as well as general reasons which are
-the regional languages have vast and rich literature so to make sure that the works of literature eg in sindhi are not lost, the government setup society for their promotion such as sindhi literary board
-the regional languages have contributed greatly to freedom movements such as pushto was the language of movement in nwfp so government promoted it
-balochi wasnt promoted much before partition so to bring it in line with other languages, balochi was promoted

Re: HISTORY Rare questions !!

and if the question meant about eic, then u could include that
-traders reported of immense wealth in subcontinent
-british wanted to compete with other european states so they came here to earn larger profit

the point of warm water seaport is given in junaid akhters note but i dont think it is a valid point
but it doesnt hurt to add two lines for top marks :p :p
