How did the attitude of the British change towards the people of the subcontinent after 1857?

After the Indian Rebellion of 1857, British attitudes towards the people of the subcontinent shifted significantly. The rebellion led to a perception of Indians as untrustworthy and rebellious, resulting in increased racial discrimination and a more paternalistic approach. The British sought to tighten control, leading to a more repressive administration and a focus on maintaining order through military might rather than fostering cooperation or understanding. This shift deepened the divide between the British and Indians, entrenching colonial attitudes that viewed Indians as subjects rather than partners.
