Description and Table of Contents
Description
This is the second volume in a series which provides the texts of the Fortnightly Reports sent by the Governors of the United Provinces to the Viceroy. Other key documents sent by the Governors or their Secretaries are also included. There are 97 items in total. Congress had been in power in the UP for just under six months when this volume opens and within a further six weeks a crisis had arisen over the release of political prisoners. The Ministers submitted their resignations on 15 February 1938 but with compromise and diplomacy on all sides they had returned to office ten days later. Thereafter the Congress Ministry concentrated on a wide-ranging programme of legislative and administrative reform at the centre of which was a bill for tenancy reform. As the year progressed leftward pressures and communal difficulties increased and the Governor became concerned at the weakened position of the Premier, G B Pant.
