The Hindustan Review. January 1927

1927

There is a feeling that the political salvation of the people of the whole country demands the mending of some of the States and the ending of the others. [...] The intermediate or the second period marked the commencement on the one hand of the idea of suzerainty on the part of the East Indian Company and on the other the simultaneous but gradual decline and fall of the allied States from the position of perfect equality to the status of feudatories. [...] For in the year 1825 a treaty was concluded with the Vizier of Oudh by Lord Amherst who decribed him as "His Majesty the King of Oudh." Of course the process of the rise and progress of the idea of suzerainty on the one hand and of the subjection of the independent Indian sovereigns to the status of feudatories on the other must have been slow and even impercetible. [...] We may take it that the second period began soon after the fall of Napoleon and of the Peishwah when the French and the Maharattas ceased to be a menace to the Company say during the first quarter of the nineteenth century. [...] The process of contraction resulting in the breaking of the centripetal force led to the separation of the outermost parts of these planets resulting in the formation of their satellites.
