INDIAN RIDICULE
REPORT ATTACKED BY CALCUTTA PRESS “GOD’S SEVEN CHOSEN” DELHI, Wednesday. The general attitude oi! the Indian National Congress Party toward the report of the Indian Statutory Commission is summed up by a local extremist, Dr. Bidham Chandrardy, who contemptuously says he has not read it and is not going to do so. The Calcutta Nationalist journal “Basumti,” says:—“The first part of the report of God’s seven chosen Englishmen is out.. It has cost the Indian taxpayer a sum of money which might annually have saved 100 poor peasants from dying of preventible disease.” Moslems, on the other hand, warmly welcome what they call “a masterly survey of the Indian situation, characterised by a most commendable spirit of sympathy and fairness.”
