Thus the Indians, who fought for them in this war, demanded that democracy should also be introduced in their country. Montague, the Secretary of State for Indian Affairs in cooperation with Governor-General Lord Chelmsford presented a report on the constitutional reforms for India in 1918. The report was discussed and approved by the British Parliament and then became the Act of 1919. This Act is commonly known as Montague-Chelmsford Reforms.
