dbo:abstract
- The Montagu–Chelmsford Reforms or more briefly known as the Mont–Ford Reforms, were introduced by the colonial government to introduce self-governing institutions gradually in British India. The reforms take their name from Edwin Montagu, the Secretary of State for India from 1917 to 1922, and Lord Chelmsford, the Viceroy of India between 1916 and 1921. The reforms were outlined in the Montagu-Chelmsford Report, prepared in 1918, and formed the basis of the Government of India Act 1919. These are related to constitutional reforms. Indian nationalists considered that the reforms did not go far enough, while British conservatives were critical of them. The important features of this act were that: 1. The Imperial Legislative Council was now to consist of two houses: the Central Legislative Assembly and the Council of State. 2. The provinces were to follow the Dual Government System or dyarchy.

- 蒙太古-切姆斯福德改革（Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms）指英属印度时期引入印度逐步建立自治政府的改革方案，以印度事务大臣的名字命名。这次改革出自1918年“蒙太古-切姆斯福德”(Montagu-Chelmsford Report )报告，由此形成1919年的基本框架，这项改革一方面遭到印度民族主义分子的不满，他们其改革的进展小，与此同时遭到英国保守派指责。 (zh)
