Book excerpt: Excerpt from Open Letters to Lord Curzon on Famines and Land Assessments in India Bengal, admitted that in the Central Provinces the assessment might have been too severe.1 In India, also, during the discussion of the annual Budget in the Viceroy's Council, all the Indian members of the Council pleaded in favour of moderate assessments, long leases, and irrigation works,2 and Lord Curzon promised to bestow his careful consideration to the subject. And during the discussion of the Provincial Budget of the north-west Provinces and Oudh, Sir Antony Macdonnell, the lieutenant-governor of those Provinces, was good enough to refer to my statements, and pointed out that in Northern India the policy of the Government during the present century has been to gradually moderate the land revenue demand.

It will, however, still remain to be determined how far any particular district is in a condition to warrant the practical application of the measure at the present time." On the 8th June 1864 the Viceroy in Council submitted, in reference to the above despatch of the Secretary of State, an account of the steps taken in furtherance of the object in view. A Minute recorded by the Viceroy himself (Sir J. Lawrence) was forwarded with this letter. The Minute ends thus: "43. Such, in general terms, is the manner in which I should wish to see the Permanent Settlement carried out in those portions of the Bengal Presidency which are not yet permanently settled, such as the NorthWest Provinces, the Punjab, Oudh, and other places; and I believe that by these means we shall best be able to apply the principles, so justly insisted on by Her Majesty's Government, to the actual circumstances and condition of this country. The 5th March 1864." On the 24th March 1865 the Secretary of State for India, Sir Charles Wood, replied to the Viceroy, and laid down the rules for the introduction of the Permanent Settlement. He divided all districts into (1) Districts in which agriculture was backward. (2) Districts in which the estates were fairly cultivated and resources fully developed. (3) Districts which contained estates fairly cultivated, and also estates with resources imperfectly developed. He decided that the Permanent Settlement should be introduced at once into the second class of districts and refused in the first class of districts. In regard to the third class of districts, he stated that Her Majesty's Government "are prepared to authorise an immediate settlement on perpetuity, after revision, for...

Excerpt: ...have from time to time suggested the true remedy. As far' 'back as 1862, Lord Canning proposed a permanent settlenient for all India;ia'nd'if Lord Canning had lived five years longer, his proposal would have been acted upon, and famines in their present intense and disastrous forms would have been unknown. 'Lord-Mayo and 'Lord Northbrook placed on record their view against' frequent and harassing surveys and settlements;-and acting on t-heir'suggest'ions, Lord Ripon finally proposed a modified form of permanent settle'inei1t1 which seemed to meet all objections and to provide' a satisfactory solution to the whole question. Lotd Ripon claimed for' the; State the right to enhance re: /enue'in'the future on' the ground of a rise in prices; but he assured the cultivators against recurring settlements and against all enhancements except on this one equitable ground, Gentlemen, this equitble solution was accepted and acted upon in Madras, and I am informed, also in Bombay; but Lord Ripon left India in December 1884, and his wise decision was vetoed by the Secretary of State for India in January 1885. And India has thus once more been plunged into another era of uncertain assessments, frequent enhancements, agricultural distress, ahd disastrous famines. We appeal, gentlemen, to the new Governor of Bombay, who comes in our midst with the best traditions of good government, to fixamoderate limit to the land-tax, which in Northern India does not exceed ten percent. of the produce. We appeal to him in this year of famine and distress to extend to us that relief which is connectled with the names of Canning and of Ripon, and to proclaim that in districts.which have been once surveyed and settled, and in which...

APPENDIX G EXTRACT FROM THE SPEECH OF THE HON. THE MAHARAJA OP DARBHANGA AT THE DEBATE ON THE BUDGET IN THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL OF THE VICEROY OF INDIA ON THE 28TH MARCH 1900 My Lord, --In accordance with the practice which usage has sanctioned in this Council, P desire to takeadvautage of the opportunity afforded by the presentation of the Budget Statement to place before your Excellency's Government certain observations in matters of domestic and internal policy which may, I trust, meet with favourable consideration at your hands. It may be that I shall be compelled to trespass for some little time upon your Excellency's time, but I venture, by way of extenuation, to plead the importance of the subjects I am about to discuss, and I am still further encouraged to proceed by the sympathy and support which your Excellency has invariably accorded to all questions concerning the development of the resources of the country. In the first place, I would ask permission, my Lord, to say a few words with regard to the question of Land Settlement, and I would direct my remarks more particularly to the Central Provinces and Assam. It has been a pleasure to me to listen to the interesting speech of my hon. friend, Mr Bose, and if I may say so, he has dealt with his subject in a masterly and exhaustive fashion. I fear that it cannot be denied that there is a strong feeling in certain quarters to the effect that the present policy stands in serious need of revision. The cry is not for the extension to the other parts of India of a Permanent Settlement similar to that which prevails in Bengal. It is felt, even hy those who are the strongest advocates of Vhe Zemindari system, that this is a question which hast V-... gg for all decided by the Secretary of..
