- Lord Ripon bids farewell to India from Mumbai city
History is full of wonders! The Indian War of Independence, which ended on May 10-16, 1917, shook the foundations of the British Sultanate, and the Viceroy sent by the British Sultanate as the ruler of India began. In subsequent history, we are more reminded of Lord Clive or Warren Hastings, who came as Viceroy and oppressed the people, and we have completely forgotten the generous Indian Viceroy Lord Ripon. History says that in the 19th War of Independence, the people of Hindustan went to war against the British, but exactly five years later, the British in India revolted against the British Viceroy himself. The white British accused Lord Ripon of being too soft-hearted and pro-Hindustani.
Born in 10 Downing Street, the Prime Minister's residence in London. J. Robinson's son, Lord Ripon, received several royal titles. Despite the proliferation of such titles, he thought in terms of originality and public welfare. That is why his father belonged to the Tory party in Britain, while Ripon became the leader of the Liberal Party in London. He became the second Earl of Ripon after his father and was placed in the House of Lords in England. Lord Ripon's previous Viceroy Leight had nothing left to oppress the Hindustanis and so Rip's first task was to understand the suffering of the people and heal their wounds.
E. In 1914, it gave freedom of the press and repealed the Vernacular Press Act. That is why he started 'local self-government' which is a special example today. Under this he formed local boards in rural areas. Planned to create district subdivision in the district and taluka board in the taluka. Formed municipalities in the towns and provided them with the means to earn income with the freedom to work. He also planned to have more participation of non-governmental people in these organizations.
At the time of census in India, the whole country is looking forward to it. The first census in India was started in the country during Mayo's reign in 18th century, but during Lord Ripon's reign, regular census was started from 191, which is still done every ten years.
In the same way, it issued the first Factory Act and made it a rule that no child under the age of seven could be employed in the factory where most workers work. Determined working hours for children under the age of twelve and specifically appointed an inspector to enforce the law. Lord Rip reduced the tax levied on salt. Changed the law for the farmers of Bihar. There was also a 'white rebellion' of the British against Lord Ripon. Florence Nightings called him the savior of India, and it is said that in his first speech after his arrival in Calcutta as Viceroy, he said, "Evaluate me by my deeds, not by words." The conspiracy was hatched. While the Indians on the one hand supported Ripon by saying that he was very good, kind, honest, generous, progressive and philanthropic, the British living in India revolted against him.
The root cause of this revolt was that some Indians passed the famous Indian Civil Service (ICS) exams. The 'black' ICS, which was empowered to administer justice under the law of the day. The British could prosecute criminals in 'capitals' like Kolkata, Lahore, Madras or Mumbai, but could not hold such hearings in cities like Burdwan, Coimbatore or Ahmednagar outside these cities. He got this right in Shimla, but he did not have this right in Solan village. This meant that the ICS of Bengal B.L. Gupta could hear cases against British criminals in Kolkata, but not in Dhaka.
Ilbert of the Court worked with Lord Ripon as his secretary. At that time he drew the attention of Viceroy Ripon to such a strange and discriminatory law and Lord Ripon brought a bill in the Central Legislature to remove this law. In history, this bill came to be known as the 'Ilbert Bill' and it was progressive in the sense that India's ICS Officers can prosecute any English criminal anywhere.
This helped the British living in India. British government officials joined in the protest and were joined by English merchants and garden owners in India. Thus all the British working in the government and non-government did not like the equality with the Hindustanis in the matter of law and such activism of the Viceroy in this matter seemed particularly awkward. In opposition to this, there was a 'white revolt' in India and rallies, sabotage and conspiracies were held in most of the major cities of the country. These white rebels sent their representatives to England to present their voices and did not look back to lay the blame on Viceroy Ripon.
The number of such rebels was small, but how could the British be repressed in the same way as they repressed the Indian soldiers who shouted rebellion in the 19th! The result was a revolt in India against the Viceroy, Lord Ripon, and the law enacted to repeal the Ilbert Bill provided that the ICS, which hears the case of an English criminal, should not be allowed to do so. If it is Indian, the offender can demand a jury in which fifty percent is European.
At that time a cartoon was also published in the famous English weekly 'Punch' in which India was shown as an elephant and Lord Ripon as a mahout and many Englishmen were sitting in a position with the mahout who intimidated the mahout and canceled the bill. People realized that if they wanted anything from the British government, they had to unite. Lord Rip wrote in a letter to Sir Arthur, a liberal pro-India friend like himself, "If the Indians do not unite, this is how they will be oppressed."
Lord Ripon was one of the first to conceive of it along with Alan Hume, the founder of the Indian National Congress. He resigned before the end of his term due to the White Rebellion. When he was leaving India on December 15, Indians organized ceremonies and showered him with congratulatory letters. The Viceroy had not received such a farewell and as a symbol of public love, he was referred to as 'Lord Ripon Our Father' in Chennai and a city building was named 'Ripon Building'. So a village in Shirobogga taluka of Karnataka was named 'Ripanpet'. 'Ripon Street' was established in Kolkata and 'Ripon Hall' in Multan and in the 19th century, Parsis of Mumbai set up a club for their com and named it 'The Ripon Club'.
The revelation of the moment
What 'label' have you applied to yourself? Do you have a tendency to be afraid, are you constantly afraid of society, of superiors, of rivals, or of an impending disaster? Do you tremble when you go on stage and give a speech in front of a crowd? In fact, a person first labels himself as a timid, cowardly, weak person and then decides for himself whether he is very weak or cowardly.
The student who fails the exam considers himself weak in the study and then he puts the label of weak student on himself and the society also sticks that label on him. In time, his label as a 'stupid student' will become his identity. It depends on how we build ourselves. If you believe in yourself, you will be able to make your way through life, even in the midst of crushing crowds. So one should learn to love oneself, one's self-confidence, one's choice in life and one's ability. If you love yourself, keep thinking about it.
If you love it, believe in everything. So continue to love your faith, your desire, your choice and your determination. Swami Vivekananda has said, "He who does not believe in himself is called an atheist." Such atheism is the antithesis of self-confidence, the father of great deeds. He who has lost confidence loses everything in life. He has nothing else to lose.
