the up-loader of the article on Google is either LIAR or "ill informed", true that Lord Macaulay didn't like Indian education system not because he thought it was more best than English education system but because he thought that Indian education system is poor and Science and scholar-ism is best available in English rather than Sanskrit or Persian. he wanted to create Indians by body and color but British by the language, morals and thinking. these people later were known as "Macaulay's children's". but in this era you need to know English otherwise you are doomed to fail.
