Ilbert Bill Controversy (इलबर्ट बिल विवाद), 1883
Ilbert Bill 1883 mein India ke Viceroy Lord Ripon ke shasan kaal mein laya gaya tha. Is bill ko Sir Courtenay Ilbert ne prepare kiya tha. Iska main purpose British India ki judicial system mein maujood racial discrimination (nasli bhedbhaav) ko kam karna tha.
Bill se pehle kya situation thi?
Us samay Indian judges ya magistrates, European ya British logon ke criminal cases ki hearing nahi kar sakte the, chahe Indian judge kitna bhi qualified ho ya kisi high position par ho.
Ilbert Bill kya chahta tha?
Is bill ke according, Indian District Magistrates aur Session Judges bhi European British citizens ke criminal cases ki hearing kar sakte the.
Iska matlab tha ki Indian aur European judges ko equal judicial powers milte.
Controversy kyon hui?
India mein rehne wale European logon ne is bill ka bahut strongly oppose kiya. Unka maanna tha ki Indian judges European logon ke cases ka fair aur impartial decision nahi kar sakte. Yeh opposition British rule mein maujood racial discrimination aur racial superiority ko clearly show karta tha.
Final Result
European opposition ke pressure ke karan British government ko original bill mein changes karne pade. Compromise ke baad European accused ko jury trial ka right diya gaya aur jury ke kam-se-kam aadhe members European ho sakte the. Modified law 1884 mein implement hua.
India par Impact
* Indian logon ko British rule ke racial discrimination ka clearly experience hua.
* Indians mein national consciousness (rashtriya chetna) badhi.
* Educated Indians ko ek all-India political organization ki need mehsoos hui.
* Iske kuch samay baad, 1885 mein Indian National Congress (INC) ki establishment hui.
One Line mein:
Ilbert Bill Controversy ne dikhaya ki British government Indians ko justice ke field mein bhi Europeans ke equal rights dene ke liye fully ready nahi thi.
