Ilbert Bill was introduced in 1883 by Viceroy Ripon. It proposed to grant limited criminal jurisdiction to native officials over European British subjects living in the districts under their charge.It also allowed Indian judges and magistrates the jurisdiction to try British offenders in criminal cases. After opposition from Europeans in Britain as well as India, the bill was withdrawn and reintroduced after amendment saying that a jury of 50% Europeans was required if an Indian judge was to face a European.
