asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether there is at present any censorship on letters to or from or within India; and, if so, what is the nature of this censorship?

I have no doubt that the Governments in India use, when necessary, the powers with which they are vested by Section 26 of the Indian Post Office Act of 1898 in the case of dangerous conspirators and other persons whose activities seriously threaten the public safety or tranquillity. But there is no other form of censorship in force in India.
