Sir Edward Charles Kayll Ollivant KCIE (1846–1915) was a senior member of the Indian Civil Service. He had notable interactions with both Mahatma Gandhi and Muhammed Ali Jinnah.
Ollivant arrived in India in 1881.[1] In 1892, he had a disagreement in Rajkot with Gandhi,[2] who was then a young barrister.[3] The incident resulted in Gandhi being pushed out of a room, and ill feelings about this dispute were apparently a factor in Gandhi's departure for South Africa in 1893.[citation needed]
Ollivant also offered to hire Muhammed Ali Jinnah at 1,500 rupees per month, and was notably turned down.[further explanation needed]
Ollivant was a judicial member of the Council of the Governor of Bombay until April 1902,[4][5] and a director of the Bombay, Baroda and Central India Railway.[6] He was knighted as a Knight Commander of the Order of the Indian Empire (KCIE) in 1892.[7]
