Preview British Administration in India

Description:
How the British governed India after the Crown assumed the formal responsibility in 1858 with Queen Victoria as India s Queen-Empresh? It was of course a many-teired system. Under the Queen or King was the Secretary of State for India, answerable to British Parliament in London. At home, in New Delhi, the Viceroy and Governor-General in council presided over the over-all Indian administration. Under him functioned the provincial governments headed by the Governor. Then the Districts had their own administrative set-up with commissioners, District Magistrates and Collectors. Elected or partially elected local bodies helped the administrative machinery at the grassroots level. The book presents a detailed account of the entire paraphernalia of the Indian administration, continues to this day. For the study of the historical process of the administration it is an authentic reference work.
