Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Speeches Documents on Indian Policy, 1750-1921, Vol. 1 of 2 The elections to Indian legislative bodies at the end of 1920 mark a definite epoch in the history of the British Empire in India; they signify the close of the period of the preparation of the people of India to take a decisive part in the moulding of their own destinies, and herald the time when India will possess full autonomy and will rank as an equal with the Dominions and the United Kingdom itself as a member of the British Commonwealth. The assurance that this status would be attained at no distant date was the moving cause which induced the Allied and Associated Powers to accord to India full membership as a unit of the British Empire in the League of Nations, and, although some time must elapse before the goal is reached, the period may be almost indefinitely shortened if the Indian ministers, into whose hands the suffrage of the people entrusts the power conceded by the new constitution, display in the constructive work of administration the high qualities of statesmanship which the ability of their criticism on the old regime indicates them to possess.
