Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
According to James Mill, all Asian societies are less civilised than those in Europe. In his biased interpretation of history, the period under British rule represented all the forces of progress and civilization. In contrast, the period before the British government represented darkness, dictatorship, religious intolerance, superstitious traditions, etc. However, it is problematic for several reasons to divide Indian history into periods based solely on religion. In the eras Mill classified as Hindu and Muslim, there were several other religions. Additionally, it is improper to categorise a period of history based on the faith of its rulers.
