India's Cries British Humanity: Relative to Infanticide, British Connection with Idolatry, Ghaut Murders, and Slavery in India

"India’s Cries to British Humanity" by J. Peggs is a passionate critique of British colonial policies in India, exposing social evils like infanticide, ghaut murders (ritual killings), slavery, and the colonial government's tacit support of idolatry. As a missionary and reform advocate, Peggs appeals to British conscience, urging moral responsibility and intervention to abolish these inhumane practices. His work reflects early 19th-century evangelical efforts to reform Indian society while also critiquing the ethical failures of British rule.
