Explanation:
The Montague-Chelmsford Proposals were related to constitutional reforms. They were introduced in 1918 by Edwin Montague, the Secretary of State for India, and Lord Chelmsford, the Viceroy of India. These proposals formed the basis for the Government of India Act 1919, which introduced significant constitutional reforms in British India. The Act provided for the expansion of legislative councils, the introduction of dyarchy (a system of dual governance) in the provinces, and increased participation of Indians in the legislative and administrative processes.
