  • The problem with James Mill’s periodisation is that it divided Indian history on the basis of religion into Hindu, Muslim and British periods, which is biased and ignores the rich cultural diversity of India.
  • Many rulers and cultures coexisted, and not all people of one religion ruled or lived the same way.
  • His periodisation was biased and did not represent the diversity of Indian society.
