This
periodisation has been borrowed from the West where the modem period was
associated with the growth of all the forces of modernity such as science,
reason, democracy, liberty and equality. Medieval was a term used to describe a
society where these features of modem society did not exist.
It is difficult for us to accept this
characterization of the modem period. Here, it is worth-mentioning that Indians
did not have equality, freedom or liberty under the British rule. The country
also lacked economic growth and progress in that period. It is therefore many
historians refer to modem period as colonial period.
