The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Government of India Act 1912&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; was an act of the [[Parliament of the United Kingdom]], which made changes to the governance of [[British India]]. It received royal assent on 25 June 1912.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ilbert, Sir Courtenay Peregrine. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Government of India&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, Third Edition, revised and updated. Clarendon Press, 1922. pp. 119-122.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The act addressed several problems related to the reorganization of Bengal. In 1905, the [[Bengal Presidency]] was [[Partition of Bengal (1905)|divided in two]], and the eastern portion combined with Assam Province to become the new province of [[Eastern Bengal and Assam]]. The division generated considerable opposition and unrest, and in 1911 Bengal was reorganized again into three provinces - Bengal (present-day [[West Bengal]] and [[Bangladesh]]), [[Bihar and Orissa]], and [[Assam]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first section of the act modified the powers of the newly appointed Governor of Bengal. Until 1912, the [[Governor-General of India]] also served as Governor of [[Bengal Presidency]]. In March 1912, the [[Secretary of State for India]] proclaimed that the reunified [[Bengal Presidency|Bengal Province]] would be a province under its own governor. The Act gave the new governor the same powers as the governors of [[Bombay Province|Bombay]] and [[Madras Province|Madras]], including acting as governor-general in the governor-general&amp;#039;s absence, the salary of the governor and his council, and the number and qualifications of members of the executive councils.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The second section of the Act permitted the immediate creation of a legislative council for the new province of [[Bihar and Orissa]], and amended the [[Indian Councils Act 1909]] to eliminate Parliamentary review of newly created legislative councils for provinces under a lieutenant-governor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The third section of the Act permitted the creation of legislative councils for provinces under chief commissioners. This authority was used to establish a legislative council for [[Assam|Assam Province]] on 14 November 1912, and for the [[Central Provinces]] on 10 November 1913.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ilbert, Sir Courtenay Peregrine. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;The Government of India&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, Third Edition, revised and updated. Clarendon Press, 1922. pp. 119-122.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
