"India ka Bolbala London Mein..." In the city, Indians own more real estate than English people.

In India, the British Raj is a complicated and sinister period. Englishmen tried to eradicate Indian culture during the British Raj, which lasted from 1858 to 1947. They did this by destroying Indian heritage, embezzling wealth, upsetting Indian industries, and enforcing high taxes, which resulted in famines, poverty, violence, and repression. But now, 77 years later, many Indians in the center of England—London—are far wealthier than native Englishmen.

The East India Company led by Englishmen invaded and colonized numerous countries including India. The British Raj in India is a dark and complex chapter. During the British Raj, which lasted from 1858 to 1947, the Englishmen attempted to erase Indian culture by destroying Indian heritage, draining the wealth, disrupting Indian industries and imposing heavy taxes leading to famines, poverty, violence and repression. The British Raj is remembered as a painful chapter that included massacres and brutal suppression. However, now after 77 years, a large number of Indians in London, the heart of England, are way richer than the native Englishmen.

According to Barratt London, a London-based residential developer, Indians are the largest group of property owners in The City. Its recent calculations show that the number of Indians who own real estate in the heart of the United Kingdom exceeds more than the number of native owners. This group of Indians include people who have been living in the UK for generations as well as Non-Resident Indians (NRIs).

Notably, wealthy Indians have been making real estate investments in London for decades, making it a popular destination. According to reports, Oxford Circus in the city's west and Mayfair and Marylebone in Central London are the most sought-after areas for real estate investments.
