^tion of securing this object is the very essence of real and true
loyalty to the Sovereign whose confidence he has the privilege
to enjoy. The ready willing acceptance of this principle by his
colleagues is a source of great inspiration and strength to him,
for it is an agreement on the very first principles of the relations
of England and India, To me, personally, the conviction that
duty to ray Sovereign is in absolute and complete keeping with
ray duty to my country, has been a great support and a sustain-
ing force of incalculable value.
Under the treaties of 1853 and 1860, they were " assigned, "
without limit of time to the British Government to provide for
the maintenance of the Hyderabad contingent, a body of troops
kept by the British Government for the Nizam's use, the
surplus revenue, if any, being payable to the Nizam. In course
of time it had become apparent that the maintenance of the
Hyderabad contingent on its old footing as a separate force was
inexpedient and unnecessary and that similarly the adminis-
tration of Berar as a separate unit was very costly while from
the point of view of the Nizain the precarious and fluctuating
nature of the surplus was financially inconvenient. The agree-
ment of 1902 re-affirmed His Highness's sovereignty over Berar,
which instead of being indefinitely "assigned "to the Govern-
ment of India, was leased in perpetuity to an annual rental of
25 lakhs, the rental is for the present charged with an annual
debit towards the repayment of loans made by the Govern-
ment of India. The Government of India were at the same time
authorised to administer Berar in such manner as they might
think desirable, and to redistribute, reduce, re-organise and
control the Hyderabad Contingent, due provision being made
as stipulated in the Treaty of 1853, for the protection of Hi
Highness's Dominions. In accordance with thii agreement the*
Contingent ceased in March 1903, to be a separate force and
was re-organised and re-distributed as an integral part of the
Indian Army, and in October 1903 Berar was transferred
to the administration of the Chief Commissioner of the Central
Provinces.*
