HC Deb 12 December 1927 vol 211 c1829
11. Mr. GRIFFITHS

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether any action has been taken by the Government of India on the resolution recently moved in the Council of State by Mr. Ram Das Pantalu with reference to the abolition of the Devdasi system?

Earl WINTERTON

No question can arise of taking action on the resolution referred to, as it was withdrawn without being put to the House. But my Noble Friend is in correspondence with the Government of India on the question of further legislation on this subject.
