Explanation

Bicameralism at the center was introduced by the Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms (1919). The Indian Councils Act of 1861 initiated legislative devolution by restoring powers to Bombay and Madras. Separate electorates for Muslims were introduced in 1909 (Minto-Morley), and Provincial Autonomy was the hallmark of the 1935 Act.
