The report on Indian Constitutional Reforms known as the Montagu-Chelmsford or Montford report prepared jointly by Mr. Montagu, Secretary of State for India, and Lord Chelmsford, the Viceroy of India, was published in July 1918.Without paying any heed to the demand for the status of self-governing dominions, the report had most mischievously made the concessions conceded by the Congress to the League on separate communal electorates under the Lucknow Pact of 1916 between the Congress and the League as the basis for Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms.
