Following reforms in central executive council were made under Government of India Act, 1919:

  • The restriction related to number of members in the council was removed. 
  • The advocates working in Indian high courts as lawyers for at least 10 years were considered eligible to be the legal members in the council. Under this provision, Tej Bahadur Sapru was appointed as the first Indian legal member in the council. 
  • In the executive council, number of Indians was increased from one to three, but these members were not the representatives of common men but the supporters of government and hence they were given less-important departments.
