India was the most scientifically advanced nation on earth since the fount of civilization back in 3500 BC until 1200 AD. In any field of science ( Mathematics, Mettalurgy, Medicine, Astronomy , Philosophy, Logic etc) you find India was ALWAYS a step ahead of the rest of the civilized world. It all changed starting with the destruction of the great Universities like Nalanda, Vikramshila , Sarnath etc . This along with the huge translation of Sanskrit texts into Latin helped Europe overtake India by 1600 AD, culminating with the transmission of Calculus by the Jesuit missionaries. After Issac Newton got his hands on this grand instrument, Europe gained ascendancy. Islam was always a plague where ever it went. It brought nothing but death and destruction wherever it went
