1830 in India

In 1830, India was a significant focal point of social, political, and economic change during the British colonial period. The year marked a pivotal moment in the early stages of the British East India Company's consolidation of power, following the suppression of various uprisings and the establishment of its authority over significant regions. The socio-economic landscape was characterized by agrarian distress, exacerbated by land revenue policies and famines. Additionally, this period witnessed the rise of reformist movements addressing issues such as caste discrimination and female education. The year was also noteworthy for cultural developments, including the spread of print media and the beginnings of the Indian Renaissance, which would lay the groundwork for future nationalistic sentiments.
