Explanation

The Royal Commission on the Public Services in India, 1912, also known as the Islington Commission, was chaired by Lord Islington [t2][t4]. The commission was tasked with examining the Indian civil services and recommending reforms to increase Indian representation [t8]. It consisted of ten members, including three prominent Indians: Gopal Krishna Gokhale, a moderate leader; Abdur Rahim, a judge; and Madhav Rao [t7][t8]. Other notable members included Valentine Chirol (often spelled Valence Chirol in some texts), Ramsay Macdonald, and Lord Ronaldshay [t6]. Bal Gangadhar Tilak, an extremist leader who was serving a prison sentence in Mandalay from 1908 to 1914, was not a member of this commission. The commission's report was completed in 1915 but published only in 1917 due to World War I [t8].
