It was in August, 1917, when everything was not going well with the Allies in the World War I that the late Edwin Samuel Montagu, then Secretary of State for India, declared that the aim of British rule in India was self-government. When the war was over, the Reforms Act of 1919 was passed introducing the system of dyarchy in provinces. Great Britain now demands that India shall confide her immediate destiny into the hands of a parliamentary commission which wounds her self-respect. In wake of this, India has decided to boycott the parliamentary commission.
