Portée et contenu
Chelmsford has not yet sent a copy of his speech, and Montagu has been receiving telegrams protesting against the Indemnity Bill. Suggests that false impressions may be gaining ground in India that ought to be contradicted. Refers to a copy of a telegram from Chandavarkar [see A2/19/2b], and suggests informing him that the appointment of the Commission by the Viceroy will not affect its independence, and that the Indemnity Bill will not affect or limit the action that may be necessary as a result of the inquiry.
