________________ have christian missions to india been successful? A brief history of missionary activities in India Right from the year 1605, some individual Christian priests came to India to spread their religion. But the first mission was established near Calcutta called 'Shri Rampur Mission' by a team of priests under the leadership of William Carry The East India Company was interested in financial gains only and it thought that such missionary activities may affect their trade. Hence, they objected to this. However, William Force presented Hinduism as an ugly religion and this resulted in the passing of Religious Conversion' Bill in the British Parliament in the year 1813. Further more, Macaulay introduced English language in Indian education and administration. This is how the missionary activities all over world were supported by the state and was funded by Christians. Under the garb of advancement of quality life, modern education, systemic governance etc, they tried to destroy the very fabric of Indian spirituality and civilization.
