(Source: The Bombay Government’s Notification).
1931: A student named Vasudev Balwant fires two revolver’s shots at Sir Earnest Hoston, the Governor of Bombay, when he was entering the Reading Room of Fergussion College, Poona.

(Source: The Indian Annual Register, Vol-11,1941).Three members of the Working Committee of Muslim League joined that Council, and one of that Chowdhri Zafarullah became the Foreign Minister of Pakistan !
