Brahmanism flourished due to British rule

Nair explains how the British helped spread of Brahmanism throughout India, and exclaims that the Brahmin succeeded in utilising the Britishers as an unconscious tool for the strengthening of his social control over masses by four streams of activity by the British administration which directly contributed to the strength of all-India Hinduism under Brahmin leadership. Dr. M. N. Srinivas classified them as follows.
(a)systematic reconstruction of Indian history
(b)development of mass communication media, films of mythological themes and Brahmanical control over press. To this could now be added electronic media and mythological serials.
(c)growth of movements against defects in Brahmanical religion like untouchability, child marriage etc.
(d)study of Sanskrit literature and philosophy

Nair exclaims that, thus the Brahmin discovered his soul and saw with clear eyes the beauty and ugliness of his own handiwork in India, and the regrouping of social forces that took place under the British regime. [Nair B. N., "The Dynamic Brahmin", p. 80]
