Consider the following
1. The English Navy was superior to that of the French navy .
2. In Europe , the position of England was much stronger than that of France .
3.The French Company lacked government support.
How many of the statements given above are causes for the failure of the French in establishing political control over India?
Only One
Only Two
All Three
None
Statement 1 is correct , The English possessed mastery over the seas their navy was far superior than that of France and could send help to India at will without much obstruction. On the other hand they could cut off the link between the French possession in India and France.
Statement 2 is correct ,The French leader like Duplex and Bussy, through quite able and energetic were certainly inferior to the English leaders like Lawrence and Clive. The English leadership was more patriotic and united. Neither count Lally nor Bussy was a match for Eyre Coote.
Moreover the French officers often quarrelled among themselves. They did not work in co-operation. This brought disaster for them. It is well known that Duplex and La- Boundonnai’s could not work together on the question of Madras and the latter left the former. On the other hand, the English always helped one another and that was the secret of their success.
Statement 3 is also correct , As most of the French resources in men and money were exhausted in the European battles she could not provide sufficient funds or money for India. On the other hand England remained aloof from the European wars, and utilised her man power and other resources for furthering their interest in India. This factor helped the English in establishing their supremacy in India.
