Answer 2

Lord Ripon revoked the Vernacular Press Act and down the salt tax. He conjointly projected to offer the Indian judges identical rights as European judges to handle the cases of European defendants.

Explanation:

Lytton's reactionary policies like reduction of most regulation for the I.C.S. examination from twenty-one years to nineteen years (1876), the grand city room of 1877 once the country was within the severe grip of famine, the Vernacular Press Act (1878) and therefore, the Arms Act (1878) aggravated a storm of opposition within the country.

Then came the Elbert Bill conflict. Ripon's Government had sought after to get rid of, “judicial disqualification supported race distinctions” and to offer the Indian members of the covenanted officialdom identical powers and rights as those enjoyed by their European colleagues. Ripon had to switch the bill, which nearly defeated the first purpose, attributable to stiff opposition from the European community.
