I think you forget how Maratha a** got kicked Forget about Marathi chamars ruling subcontinent. They only won against their own kind, mughal army was full of local hindus and muslims.
Without British Subcontinent would have been divided in dozen countries or even more.
This should cheer you up ^^^
If you are wondering - where did the Great Mughal Empire go... please check this -
Delhi had fallen to the Marathas in 1757-58 and their forces had penetrated and captured Peshawar and Attock
Conflict and Conquest in the Islamic World: A Historical Encyclopedia: A ... - Google Books
"This incident has a special importance in Indian history, particularly Hindu history since, after nearly seven and a half centuries when the last Hindu King of the region Trilochan Pal Shahi had been defeated by Mahmud of Ghazni in 1020 C.E., Indus river came under Hindu rule due to the Maratha conquest of Punjab in 1758. This campaign of the Marathas led by Raghunath Rao is hailed as Raghu's Bharari - i.e. whirlwind campaign in Maharashtra even today."
So yes - without the English( and the traitorous Indians) we would have been a democratic republic with a Maratha Nominal Constitutional Monarch.
Oh btw - the pic is after Durrani drove out the Marathas from Indus in late 58.
