HC Deb 02 July 1920 vol 131 c893W
Brigadier-General SURTEES

asked the Secretary for India if he has received any reports from Afghanistan and the border tribes as to the activity of Bolshevik agents in those countries, and if this is resulting in a dangerous effervescence directed against British rule in India; and if he has found Bolshevik agents working in the more disturbed portions of that Empire?

Mr. MONTAGU

I have received reports on Bolshevik activities in the regions mentioned in the question. I know the Government of India are carefully watching the propaganda, which is, of course, dangerous in any country. I am consulting them as to the publication of a statement on the subject.
