I live next to large Anglo Indian community in Melbourne and from what I can gather
- They look down on Indians, even those upper caste Indians.
- They act like Jews and only marry within the AngloIndian or English community
- Pretty much embrace all,aspects of English culture, Some even call England the motherland and regularly go to Enlgish cultural events
- Reject their indian roots
- Are offended if they are called Indian
> During the centuries that Britain was in India, the children born to British men and Indian women began to form a new community. (This process was replicated in many other meetings of European traders and colonisers across the subcontinent, including in Burma and Sri Lanka.) >These Anglo-Indians formed a small but significant portion of the population during the British Raj, and were well represented in certain administrative roles. The Anglo-Indian population dwindled from roughly 800,000 at the time of independence in 1947 to fewer than 350,000 by 2010. Many have adapted to local communities and emigrated to the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and the United States.[1][8]
