Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
William Jones and Henry Thomas Colebrooke were orientalists. They demonstrated a particular attitude towards India, characterized by profound respect for ancient cultures, both Indian and Western. They feel that Indian civilization reached its peak in ancient times, but since then, it has declined. To better understand India, they needed to explore sacred texts and laws created in ancient times. Only these texts can reveal the fundamental ideas and laws of Hindus and Muslims, and only a new study of these texts can form the basis for developments in India's future.
