HC Deb 12 April 1877 vol 233 c973
MR. FAWCETT

asked the Under Secretary of State for India, Whether the Secretary of State for India will withhold his assent to the proposed abolition of the Delhi College until a Memorial, which was passed at a numerously attended public meeting at Delhi in opposition to the intended abolition of the College, has been received and considered at the India Office?

LORD GEORGE HAMILTON,

in reply, said, if the hon. Member would furnish him with a copy of the Memorial it should be forwarded to the Indian Government, with a request that they would carefully consider it before coming to any decision upon the subject.

MR. FAWCETT

would undertake that the Memorial should be sent in at once.
