Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Colonialism was certainly a far more traumatising experience for colonial subjects than their colonisers. They suffered poverty, malnutrition, disease, cultural upheaval, economic exploitation, political disadvantage, and systematic programmes aimed at creating a sense of social and racial inferiority.

Detailed explanation-2: -During the British rule, there was hardly any capital goods industry to support the slow industrial development taking place in India.
