Question
In what ways were the Montague-Chelmsford Reforms illusory as far as the National Movement was concerned?
Solution
The Montague-Chelmsford reforms were illusory to the leaders of the national movement: because the real control of the administration remained in the hands of the British as per this Act. The British could control law and order situation anywhere in the country as they had the police and the army under them. Moreover, the finances were under British control.
