6. How important was the Government of India Act 1935? [14 Marks]

Despite the failure of the Round Table Conferences, in March 1933 the British government gave the Joint Select Committee the task of formulating the new Act for India. The Committee comprised of 16 members each from the House of Commons and House of Lords, 20 representatives from British India and seven from the princely states. Lord Linlithgow was appointed as the president of the Committee. After a year and a half of deliberations, the Committee finally came out with a draft Bill on December 1934. The Bill was discussed in the House of Commons for 43 days and in the House of Lords for 13 days and finally, after being signed by the King, was enforced as the Government of India Act, 1935, in August 1935.
The main features of the Act of 1935 were:
1. A federation of India was promised for, comprising both provinces and states. The provisions of the Act establishing the federal central government were not to go into operation until a specified number of rulers of states had signed Instruments of Accession. Since, this did not happen, the central government continued to function in accordance with the 1919 Act and only the part of the 1935 Act dealing with the provincial governments went into operation.
2. The Governor General remained the head of the central administration and enjoyed wide powers concerning administration, legislation and finance.
3. No finance bill could be placed in the Central Legislature without the consent of the Governor General.
4. The Federal Legislature was to consist of two houses, the Council of State (Upper House) and the Federal Assembly (Lower House).
5. The Council of State was to consist of 260 members, out of whom 156 were to be elected from the British India and 104 to be nominated by the rulers of princely states.
6. The Federal Assembly was to consist of 375 members; out of which 250 were to be elected by the Legislative Assemblies of the British Indian provinces while 125 were to be nominated by the rulers of princely states.
7. The Central Legislature had the right to pass any bill, but the bill required the approval of the Governor General before it became Law. On the other hand Governor General had the power to frame ordinances.
8. The Indian Council was abolished. In its place, few advisers were nominated to help the Secretary of State for India.
9. The Secretary of State was not expected to interfere in matters that the Governor dealt with, with the help of Indian Ministers.
10. The provinces were given autonomy with respect to subjects delegated to them.
11. Diarchy, which had been established in the provinces by the Act of 1919, was to be established at the Center. However it came to an end in the provinces.
12. Two new provinces Sindh and Orissa were created.
13. Reforms were introduced in N. W. F. P. as were in the other provinces.
14. Separate electorates were continued as before.
15. One-third Muslim representation in the Central Legislature was guaranteed.
16. Autonomous provincial governments in 11 provinces, under ministries responsible to legislatures, would be setup.
17. Burma and Aden were separated from India.
18. The Federal Court was established in the Center.
19. The Reserve Bank of India was established.
Both the Indian National Congress and the Muslim League opposed the Act, but participated in the provincial elections of winter 1936-37, conducted under stipulations of the Act. At the time of independence, the two dominions of India and Pakistan accepted the Act of 1935, with few amendments, as their provisional constitution.

This is most probably to come in a seven mark question as usually a 14 marks question requires a comparison and it isn't the case in this question
BTW...This Isnt Right..
You dont have to explain the govt of indian act 1935 but you have to describe its importance...
although you can also include what it was I.e a simple on para explaining what it was.....

Importance :-
1) It was important as the negotiations among the British and Indians started on equal footings which finally led to Pakistan.
2) It gave opportunities to Indians to form ministries under the 1936 elections which gave a great realization to the Muslims of the congress tyranny which led them to think of having their own independent state. (Fore-runner Of Pakistan Movement) .
3)It was the final constitution before partition and it became the interim constitution for the new countries until they made their own constitutions .

-----Correct Me If I'm Wrong----

Guys I Need Answers To The Following Questions..
1) Why was bengal partitioned in 1905 ? (Need 3 Fully Built Reasons)
2) Why was the Sinla Deputation sent in 1906 ? (Need 4 Fully Built Reasons)
...........
Thanks In Advance...

For the first question:
1.Administrative Reasons: Talk about how Bengal was the largest of all provinces in the British Indian Empire with a high population density and prominent communal divisions in the East and West wings. Then discuss how this created administrative problems for the British and that they felt that if the province was partitioned, not only could they control it more effecitvely/efficiently, but also put an end to communal differences, particularly as a new British Government was in power and it would be difficult for a fledgling government to control such difficulties.
2. The Divide And Rule Policy: You can give a reference to how the Bengal was predominantly Hindu, and how their socio-economic power posed a potential threat to the British. YOU MUST QUOTE that THOUGH IT WAS NEVER AFFIRMED, it is widely believed that the British wanted to reduce the socio-economic supremacy of the Hindus in Bengal and thus divided the province into two wings, which meant that their influence was confined to only half of the province (based on population) rather than on the whole of Bengal itself.
3. The Desire Of The British to Help the Muslims: You may talk about how the Muslims too were a prominent, though second to Hindus, community in the Bengal Province by quoting their population distribution (you can find this in Farooq Bajwa). You may then talk about how the efforts of Sir Syed had helped bridge the gap between the two communities and how the British finally succumbed to Muslim pressures in the region, where they demanded increased political and economic rights on the account of their services for Calcutta (The Hindus owned Calcutta, but the Muslims were in majority around it and had played an integral role in its development as a port). Thus the Partition was in effect an attempt by the British to give the Muslims some socio-economic rights from which they had been deprived of for so long.
Hope this helped

Ans 1 ) As the Muslims were happy and prospering , Congress was in a great hyper. Hindu landlords , traders and some officials started protesting and soon started a movement Sawadeshi Movement . This Sawadeshi Movement was to blackmail British for the annulment of the Partion. .. Congress also told British Govt to observe a BLACK DAY on the arrival of King George 5 . The british did not want any trouble and King George announced the annulment in Delhi Darbar..

Ans 2 ) Sir Agha Khan who was the first leader of Muslim league along with some muslims met Sir Morley because Mulims were faing trouble so they had the following demands :-
1 ) Seperate electorate
2) The percentage of number of percentage for Muslims should be more than the percentage of the population in Central and Legislature council.
3) Muslims should have their own representatives , who should be only and only voted by Muslims.


As these demands were valuable for Muslims , these demands forced Sir Agha Khan to send Simla Deputation to Sir Morley in 1906

Hope you got the answers )
