It is a happy coincidence that when Prime Minister Narendra Modi is performing Bhoomi Pujan for the New Parliament Building Complex in the cational capital, we as a nation are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the conduct of the first elections in India. It may be noted that the first general elections were held in British India in 1920 to elect members to what was called the Imperial Legislative Council and the Provincial Councils. They were the first polls in the country’s modern history. The new Central Legislative Assembly, which was the lower chamber of the Imperial Legislative Council, was based in Delhi; it had 104 elected seats, of which 66 were contested and 38 were reserved for Europeans elected through the Chambers of Commerce. Interestingly, women in British India got equal franchise a little before their British counterparts.
