Answer 1

Answer: During the period of British colonialism on the Indian subcontinent, English colonists, many of whom were employed by the East India Company, were encouraged to marry and start families with Indian women who came from families of a high caste. In fact, the East India Company offered a stipend to Indian mothers upon the baptism of any offspring from an English Company employee. Hope this helps :(
