And yes, I know what was looted from the Taj Mahal: A door, some gold leaf, numerous lamps, and quite a lot of carpets. Much of this has been restored, and the Taj looks pretty much as it did before the Brutish Empire got their mitts on it.

Not to mention railway.
It's also worth to mention English cunt bags didn't do it to help us, rather to carry a dozen of humans n fucking goods trains. Ever heard of the wagon tragedy?
Those cunts didn't do shit to help us, they helped themselves. We picked ourselves up. We had great leaders like Bhagat. These little pussies came with their little guns and killed our men like pests. Our kings believed in masculine stuff like, oh I don't know, honor?
Those dipshits, knowing this, lied like the little snakes they are, caused disputes and eventually turned our people against themselves.
So THANKS bro cos it helped us OH SO much.
Don't mistake me - I'm no fan of the way the BE treated colonials, Indian or otherwise. I was simply responding to your apparently having bought into the myth that the Taj was gutted by the British. It wasn't. I'm not excusing their theft of Indian national treasures, but it wasn't nearly as bad some people make out (and not even remotely as bad as the way the Brits treated the Indians).
Untwist your knickers and try to get a bit of perspective.
