HC Deb 05 June 1919 vol 116 cc2271-2W
Colonel YATE

asked the Secretary of State for India whether his attention has been drawn to the activities of Lajp at Rai, the Indian agitator, who is doing his best in America to stir up anti-British sentiment; and what steps he proposes to take in the matter?

Mr. MONTAGU

I am aware of and regret the efforts to misrepresent to the American public the character of British rule in India to which my hon. and gallant Friend refers. Their result may easily be over-estimated, but steps have been taken to counteract them.
