CHAPTER I. GENERAL. THE Indian Central Cotton Oommittee was established by the Government of Inilia in 1921, in pursuance of the recommendations of the Indian Cotton Committee of 1917-18, and this is its twenty-fifth Annual Report covering the period 1st September, 1945, to 31st August, 1946. At first, the Committee was purely a technical advisory body to Government on matters connected with cotton. In 1923, however, it was incorporated under the Indian Cotton Cess Act with separate funds for the improvement of the growing, marketing and manufacture of Indian cotton. The idea; from the very beginning was _that the Indian Central Cotton Committee should form a common meeting ground for ap. sections of the cotton industry with the Agricultural Departments of all cotton growing provinces in India. It was realised from the. outset that the cultivator's interests must be paramount in all matters comidered · and decided by the Committee and_ that no perm!1nent developments could take place unless they were in his interests. The Committee was given its own funds almos~ from the time of its inception._ These funds are derived from the levy of a cess of two annas a bale on all Indian cotton consumed iii mills in British- India or exported from British Indian ports. The ~st task of the Committee was to arrange for a well:directed co-ordi- · nated effort for the improvement of every aspect of cotton in India, ·including improvement of the race of the plant by the application of the technique and principles of plant breeding. The Committee was not slow ·to realise that in no cotton producing area can the crop be improved and that improvement maintained without a widespread recognition of the principles of plant breeding and the practical application of those principles. Grants were made to De~ partments of Agriculture in the various cotton growing Provinces and Sta~s for specific investigations on cotton in which improvement of the variety was -.naturally given high priority. The policy in the main has been to supple­ ment'arid not supplant the work of tlie Agricultural Departments in the cottOn 2 growing Provinces and States and, though, as a matter of convenience, certain lines of demarcation have been laid down regarding the investigations which the Committee considers most appropriate for its grants, assistance, as a general rule, is given in the dirootions where it is !Jl.ost needed in the carrying out of a co-ordinated policy of cotton improvement in the country. While the Committee's constitution ensures a broad outlook on all matters falling with­ in its purview, its primary concern is the interest and welfare of the cotton grower. Under the Indian Cotton Cess Rules, members, who are not ex-oJIU;io members, hold office for three years and one-third of their number retire each year in rotation. The term of office of additional members appointed by the Governor-General under Section 4 (xi) of the Indian Cotton Cess Act is three years or such lesser period as may be specified in the notification.

  • John Locke, Accumulation by Dispossession and the Governance of Colonial India
    Journal of Contemporary Asia Vol. 42, No. 1, February 2012, pp. 1–21 John Locke, Accumulation by Dispossession and the Governance of Colonial India JUDITH WHITEHEAD Department of Anthropology, University of Lethbridge, Lethbridge, CA, USA ABSTRACT This paper proposes a historical framework for examining colonial land policies in India. It argues that Locke’s dualistic distinctions between settled agriculture on enclosed land and non-settled forms of livelihood framed basic differences in the ways that the colonial admin- istration conceived of agricultural fields and forests. Locke’s dichotomies between value and non- value-producing labour are also traced in early political economy, a discipline that exerted a di- rect influence on Indian governance, and particularly its land settlements. It is further argued that distinctions between value-producing labour and waste were formative in the development of the Forest Laws in the late nineteenth century, legislation that provided the legal framework for adi- vasi dispossession for the past century and a quarter. KEY WORDS: John Locke, wasteland, property, dispossession, colonial governance, India . [T]he idea of waste! Its array of meanings is a veritable catalogue of social ‘‘undesirables.’’ As a noun it serves as dumping ground for all those entities that capitalist society views as marginal, residual, unimportant, or unpalatable. As a verb it describes the varieties of human behaviour that are unacceptable to modern society. In either grammatical form, the word ‘‘waste’’ hovers in the English language waiting to pounce on subjects and objects at the fringes of society (Gidwani, 1992: PE 31). Despite the attention paid by post-colonial theorists to the relation between John Locke’s labour theory of property and the conquest of America, few scholars so far have examined its relation to the conquest and governance of India.1 This neglect may be due to the separation in time between the publication of Locke’s Two Treatises (1690) and the conquest of India that began with the Battle of Plassey (1757).

    CONSTITUENT ASSEMBLY OF INDIA DEBATES (PROCEEDINGS)- VOLUME VI Tuesday, 27th January 1948 --------------- The Constituent Assembly of India met in the Constitution Hall, New Delhi, at Eleven of the Clock, Mr. President (The Honourable Dr. Rajendra Prasad) in the Chair. --------------- PRESENTATION OF CREDENTIALS AND SIGNING OF THE REGISTER The following Members presented their Credentials and signed the Register : (1) Shri K. Hanumanthiah (Mysore State); (2) Shri T. Siddalingaiah (Mysore State); (3) Shri V. S. Sarvate (Indore State). Shri H. V. Kamath (C. P. & Berar: General): Mr. President, I rise to a point of order. Mr. President : We have not yet started the proceedings. No point of order can arise before that. We will now take up the first item on the Agenda. --------------- ARREST OF SHRI V. D. TRIPATHI Shri H. V. Kamath : Mr. President, before you proceed with the Business of the Day, permit me to bring to your notice the arrest of an Honourable Member of this House, I mean Shri V. D. Tripathi of the United Provinces during Netaji Jayanti celebrations on Friday last. In this connection may I ask if the United Provinces Government have addressed you any communication giving the circumstances leading to his arrest and the reasons for his detention which has prevented him from attending this Session ? In my humble judgment, Sir, this constitutes a breach of privileges of the Members of this House. Pandit Balkrishna Sharma (United Provinces: General): On this point I would like to say one thing. I do not know how far the Honourable Member is in order in raising this point in this House.
