What is it about?
In this article I have classified Indian Anthropology into three types, namely, colonial, Hindu and Nationalist and attempted to identify each one with the respective authors and found that apart from colonial and Hindu anthropology, a nationalist and development anthropology was also found in the works of some authors, although water-tight compartments among these types are not always possible.

Why is it important?
This paper is unique because the search for a nationalist trend in Indian anthropology has not yet been shown by the historiographers of anthropology in India.
