Indian Councils Act, 1892

Montagu Chelmsford Reforms, 1919

Minto Morley Reforms,1909

Government of India Act, 1935

None of the above/More than one of the above

Feedback

Though the Indian Councils Act of 1892 had introduced limited representation with indirect elections,it failed to placate the Indians who were much more conscious of their rights by now. There was a lotof resentment against reign of Lord Curzon, who had already irked the public by the foolish idea ofpartition of Bengal. There was a rise of extremism in the congress. Government, on one hand wantedto suppress the extremists but on other hand wanted to pacify the moderates. Meanwhile, GopalKrishna Gokhale went to England and met Mr. Morley, the Secretary of State for India. Viceroy LordMinto also emphasised the need of making some reforms. Both the Viceroy and the Secretary ofState for India decided to work out some scheme to reform the Legislative councils. This culminatedas Indian Councils act 1909. The idea was to give locals some more power in the legislative affairs.A provision was made for the expansion of legislative councils at the both the levels viz. central aswell as provincial. Salient Provisions Expansion of the Legislative Councils• The act enlarged the size of the legislative council both Central and Provincial. The number ofmembers in the Central Legislative Council was raised from 16 to 60. The number in Provinciallegislative council was not uniform. Legislative councils of Bengal, Bombay and Madras wasincreased to 50 members each. The provincial legislature of U.P. was to have 50, of Assam, Burmaand Punjab 30 each.• Communal Representation• For the Rrst time, the Indian Councils act gave recognition to elective principle for the appointmentof nonoScial members to the councils. However, it introduced separate and discriminatoryelectorate. The electorate was decided on the basis of class & community. For the provincial councilsa provision of three categories was made viz. general, special and chambers of commerce. However,for the central council, a fourth category Muslims was added. This was for the Rrst time that, theseats in the legislative bodies were reserved on the basis of religion for Muslims. Separateconstituencies were marked for the Muslims and only Muslim community members were given theright to elect their representatives.• The separate electorate for Muslims had a long lasting impact on India’s polity. It recognized theMuslim community as a separate section of the India and triggered the cancer of Hindu-Muslimdisharmony which ultimately culminated in the partition.• Under the separate electorates, Muslims could vote exclusively for the Muslim candidates inconstituencies specially reserved for them. The idea was to establish that the political, economic andcultural interests of the Hindus and Muslims were distinct. The unity between Hindus and Muslims isa illusion and this act sowed the seeds of the Muslim Communalism.

Currencies and coins are aat money

Currencies do not have intrinsic value but coins have

Currencies and coins are legal tenders

Cheques are legal tenders

None of the above/ More than one of the above

Correct answer

None of the above/ More than one of the above

Feedback

Currencies and coins are Rat money because they derive their value from government "Rat"/order. Ifthe coin is melted then it will not fetch the same value in the market and the paper of which thecurrency note is made of does not have any value in the market. Hence, Currency notes and coins arecalled Rat money and they do not have intrinsic value.They are also called legal tenders as they cannot be refused by any citizen of the country forsettlement of any kind of transaction. Cheques drawn on savings or current accounts, however canbe refused by anyone as a mode of payment. Hence cheques and demand deposits arenot legal tenders. So (i) & (iii) statements are true.
