Poverty and Un-British Rule in India (1876), this influential book written by *Dadabhai Naroji* argued that British policies were a significant cause of widespread poverty in India. Naoroji presented his theory of the "drain of wealth," which explained how the transfer of resources from India to Britain hampered economic growth. A book titled Some Economic Aspects of British Rule in India (1903) by *Subramania Iyer* argued that India's economic stagnation wasn't due to its pre-colonial past, but rather a direct consequence of British policies. The Economic History of India in the Victorian Age (1903) is a book written by *R.C. Dutt* that analyzed the economic transformation of India under British rule. Thus efforts of all three led to an economic critique of British colonialism in India.
