Resource summary
Morley-Minto Reforms/Indian Councils Act 1909
Failure?
Too radical for some, not radical enough for others
Extremists disliked restricted electorate
Congress opposed sep. electorates and protection of minority
Caused division in Hindu-Muslim nationalists
Seen as direct attempt to divide and rule by some in Congress
Electorate was tiny (4000 voted in total)
Positions granted purely advisory
168 resolutions made by 1917, 24 accepted
Success?
Indians involved in policy - not huge but legal significant voice
End of all-white colonial rule
Supported by some educated moderate Indians - Congress supported reforms
Didn't totally alienate - evidence of those who fought for Britain in WWI
Muslims appeased by separate electorates
Did drive wedge between Muslim/Hindu members for Congress
Reforms
135 Indian members of Councils (up from 39)
60 Indian reps elected to Viceroy's council
27 from interest groups (landowners, rich, educated, Muslims etc) officials still majority
Provincial councils enlarged - non official majority
Separate electorates - Muslims ensured voice
Reforms made law in Indian Councils Act 1909
