INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS
FURTHER RESOLUTIONS
MAHOMMEDANS AND HINDUS
(Received Last Night, 9.20 o'clock.)
BOMBAY, December 29
The Indian National Congress urged the early extension of local selfgovernment, making all local-bodies elective. A resolution was passed, disapproving of there being separate electorates for Mahommedans and Hindus.
Hindu speakers strongly resented th'o .favours shown to Mahommedans.
The discussion foreshadows a possible conciliation, on the basis of the Hindus accepting the existing Mohammedan representation as unalterable, providing that the Mohammedans do not claim a separate electoral system for local bodies.
