§ Sir C. YATEasked the Under-Secreretary of State for India if he is aware that the Jubbulpore Municipality presented an address of welcome to the Civil Disobedience Committee on its arrival there and hoisted the revolutionary flag over the municipal buildings while the Governor of the Central Provinces was present in the station, and that no action was taken by the latter: and what action has been taken in the matter by the Government of India?
§ Earl WINTERTONI am aware of the incident of the hoisting of the Swaraj Hag in the circumstances referred to, though I have no official information as to whether or not the Governor was present at the time. My information is that the visit of the Civil Disobedience Committee to Jubbulpore had attracted very little public interest and that it was decided not to take any action which would give undue notoriety to insignifi-can individuals. But I can assure my hon. and gallant Friend that consideration is being given to the action that should be taken should incidents of this kind be found to recur hereafter.
