HC Deb 17 July 1862 vol 168 cc423-4
MR. ARTHUR MILLS

said, he wished to ask the Secretary of State for India, Whether any official information has been received by the Government with respect to the rumoured symptoms of disaffection in the North West Provinces?

SIR CHARLES WOOD

in reply said, he had received no official information whatever upon the subject. He had heard from private letters that there appeared to be a disposition for some movement on the part of the Mohammedan population; but the Government were aware of what was going on, and they did not consider that there was the slightest cause for apprehension.
