Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The reforms of 1909 are also known as the Morley - Minto reforms. The real purpose of the reforms was to divide the nationalist ranks to check the growth of unity among Indians. The reforms introduced the system of separate electorate, under which all the Muslim's were grouped in separate constituencies from which only Muslim candidates could be elected.

It was done only to protect Muslim's minority. But in reality it was an attempt to divide the Hindus and Muslims to strengthen British supremacy in India by checking the growth of national unity in India. The reforms set the stage for the adoption, of parliamentary system in India. The numbers in the central legislators was fixed at 60, and a minimal right of questioning the budget was given. The act paved the way for communal electorates. The religion now paid an important role in the Indian politics. Communal politics emerged in India, which eventually led to the partition of India.
