Abstract
- The Britishers consider that they have established a "good form of government" in India. Yet within the past three months they have passed more stringent legislation against sedition than any other country in the world; such legislation can be possible only where there is bad government. The Rowlatt Commission, under the guidance of Judge J. Rowlatt, of London, with a few Englishmen and one Indian, spent many months investigating revolutionary conspiracies in India. Their investigations were largely confined to police records; never did they, according to their own confession, consult the public, for whose safety the Commission ostensibly undertook their work.
