The recurring famines of 19th century were the inevitable consequences of the British policies and exposed the real character of the British administration for Indian peasantry.

Col. Baird Committee

When a serious famine struck Delhi – Agra region in 1860-61 the government appointed Col. Baird Committee to investigate the causes of famine, but this committee performed no function and did not put forward any significant recommendation because of this basic factor and forces responsible for the famine remained intact.

George Campbell Commission

In 1866 a great famine struck many parts of India, but its impact was felt in Orissa. The Government appointed George Campbell Commission to investigate the causes of famine and to recommend measures to prevent recurrences in future.
The Committee held government system responsible for creating the famine like conditions and suggested that the government during famine times must organize the relief measures. The committee also recommended that steps should be taken for employment generation immediately so that the impact of famine could be mitigated.
The recommendations of Campbell committee were not given much attention and consequently a serious famine reoccurred in many parts of country including Punjab, UP and Madras in 1876. Its maximum impact was felt in Madras Presidency.

Richard Strachey Commission

The government appointed Richard Strachey commission in 1880.The Commission recommended:
A famine code should be formulated.
Irrigation facilities should be developed.
Collection of land revenue should be suspended immediately during famines and land revenue should be remitted.
Data should be collected about the conditions of Indian peasantry and agriculture.
A famine fund should be set up.

Anthony McDonald Committee

The government of Lord Curzon appointed Anthony McDonald Committee in 1900 to suggest measures to counter the famine effectively.

Well done! Your Answer is correct.

Opps! Your Are Wrong. Correct Answer is D

Melting of ice is a physical change

As an ice cube melts, its shape changes as it acquires the ability to flow.
However, this change is only physical, its composition does not change.
Melting is an example of a physical change as the composition of the constituent molecules remains the same.
A physical change is a change to a sample of matter in which some properties such as texture, shape, or state of the material change, but the identity of the matter does not.
