Anglo Indian majority india

I was playing some Victoria 2 as the East India Company and then I ended up turning the entire country Anglo Indian. Obviously there is no craftsman glitch in real life to assimilate but is there a way to achieve an independent Anglo Indian majority India made after the sepoy rebellion in 1857?
 
A lot of British men and women are brought while inter ethnic marriages are mandatory. Of course that can't lead to anything good as the Indians will be pissed off.
 
I think the best you can pull off is having miscegenation be heavily encouraged by British authorities as part of a general push to accommodate and integrate the Indian upper class into Britain. If you can swing the vast majority of the Princely States being lead by Anglo-Indians who are effectively equals in British India to White Brits by about the mid to late 19th century, then you have a shot at swinging Anglo-Indians' hybrid culture as the 'National' culture of a United India if they can helm the movement for independence. In order to have this be successful, you've also got to widen the definition of Anglo-Indian to include those who embrace Anglo-Indian culture wholesale, akin to how America eventually chose to stop caring about what country someone who's White is from

You're never going to have an Anglo-Indian majority throughout India, even regionally. But you can likely swing Anglo-Indians leaving a heavy and lasting impact on Indian culture as a whole
 
Indeed, an Anglo-Indian majority pre-independence is basically impossible, but successfully making it the 'prestige minority' is just about concievable.

The thing was that the mutiny of 1857 put a stop to government sanctioned anglicized approach and British from then on relied on intermediaries and left the Indians to their own. The British became another layer of rulers just like the mongols before them. Had the British continued or increased their Anglo program there would of been a much greater portion of the population that was hybrid and spoke English.
 
honestly? “best” option is lots and lots of genocide/genocidal warnand on top of the famine and disease that the UK didn’t really mind happening in the country.

Although by that point they’d prolly revolt.
 
The least ASB way of making India majority Anglo-Indian is to allow for a three-way partition: one Muslim state, one Hindu, and one Anglo-Indian. Call the Muslim state "Pakistan," the Hindu state "Hindustan" or "Bharat" and call the Anglo-Indian state "India".

Now, where will India be located? Apparently, the British had plans of moving the Anglo-Indians (population in 1947: ~2 million) to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. I guess that plan did not succeed because I don't think two million people can actually fit in the Andamans without the need for skyscrapers and environmental degradation. Maybe try and increase the Anglo-Indian population by a million or two, forcing the British to carve out a state called India somewhere on the subcontinent.
