Advent of Europeans in India as a colonial power such as, Portuguese, British, Danish,Dutch and French. The story behind the formation of Bombay as a colony of British east India company and the formation of kolkata as a city.The role of Danish and Dutch were insignificant as they could not establish themselves as a strong colonial power and lastly were forced to sale their settlements to British east India company. However the french could retain only Goa and Daman and Diu till 1961. Similarly,French could also retain Pondicherry after the appointment of Dupleix as a governor. Hence,It was only English who proved and emerged powerful among all other European colonisers of India, which was made possible only due to the shrewed and cunning policy of Britishers.
