Hi

I cannot provide proof, but have heard in many discussions that it was Macaulay's idea to impose the Max Muller's theory of Aryan invasion upon Indians, which would serve two purposes:
1.To impose the superiority of Aryans(read Europeans)who according to the theory brought civilisation to this great land.Otherwise this land was inhabited by uncivilised tribes.
2.Divide India into Aryans and Dravidians (divide and rule)

Surely he seems to have achieved his purpose.

Thankfully this theory has been proved wrong ,atleast accepted as contraversial. But still some communist historians are hell bent upon protecting this theory of Indian inferiority
