Vol. 6, Issue 1, Part A (2024)

All accounts available today about the Delhi Conspiracy Case of 1912 - an assassination attempt on the reigning Viceroy Sir Charles Hardinge - are fragmentary (none of them gives a complete picture of the Case), outdated and often one-sided (for obvious reasons). The present article seeks to correct this anomaly, by giving a comprehensive, up-to-date description of this very important event in India's history, and, at the same time, also including the British view on this episode. While doing so, the article throws ample light on the work of the British Intelligence Agencies of that period.
