Explanation
The Montague-Chelmsford Proposals were a set of recommendations made in the Montague-Chelmsford Report, published in 1918. These proposals formed the basis of the Government of India Act, 1919. Their central focus was to introduce significant constitutional reforms in British India, aiming to increase Indian participation in administration and legislative bodies, introduce dyarchy in provinces, and gradually move towards responsible government. They were not primarily concerned with social, educational, or police administration reforms.
