Its value and impact on a group of persons, society, state or a nation is limitless. This paper demonstrates how our culture has the strength to uphold unity in such a diverse country like India. It also investigates the impacts of Western education and Christian missionaries in Indian society. In the course of the study, it also analyses the evolution of the Indian socio-political ideas and various institutions.
