gandhi–irwin pact





























the 'gandhi-irwin pact' was a political agreement signed by mahatma gandhi and lord irwin, the then viceroy of india, on 5 march 1931 before the second round table conference in london. before this, lord irwin, the viceroy, had announced in october 1929 a vague offer of 'dominion status' for british india in an unspecified future and a round table conference to discuss a future constitution. the second round table conference was held from september to december 1931 in london.
gandhi–irwin pact
butler did not approve of the policies of lord irwin, whom he thought a "weak, well-meaning viceroy" for his moves towards greater indian self-government. whereas no indians had been included in the simon commission of the late 1920s, irwin wanted them involved in further talks, and issued the famous irwin declaration on 31 october 1929. butler, by contrast, wrote to his son rab (13 august 1930) that "there is nothing like a cut across the buttocks for checking religious emotions – i have generally ordered whipping for the low class people caught at this game". the first round table conference began in november 1930. the gandhi-irwin pact followed on 5 march 1931, followed by a release of prisoners. butler had wanted to be an official delegate to the round table conference and wrote of gandhi (28 july 1931) "all this slobber over him disgusts me". the second round table conference began in september 1931, with the indian congress party taking part.
