  The 1935 Government of India Act was a proposal for an Indian federation for the continuation of British control of India, and the deflection of the challenge to the Raj posed by Gandhi and the nationalist movement. This book seeks to understand why British administrators believed that such a strategy would work and what underpinned their reasons.
