List of governors-general of India : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of governors-general of India
The Regulating Act of 1773 created the office with the title of Governor-General of the Presidency of Fort William, or Governor-General of Bengal to be appointed by the Court of Directors of the East India Company (EIC). The Court of Directors of EIC also created a Council of Four (based in India) to assist The Governor General, and decision of council was binding on Governor General during 1773-1784. The Saint Helena Act 1833 (or Government of India Act 1833) re-designated the office with the title of Governor-General of India. After the Indian Rebellion of 1857, the company rule was brought to an end, and the British India along with princely states came under the direct rule of British Empire. The Government of India Act 1858 created the office of Secretary of State for India in 1858 to oversee the affairs of Aden, British India and Burma, which was advised by a new Council of India with 15 members (based in London). The existing Council of Four was formally renamed as the Council of Governor General of India or Executive Council of India. The Council of India was later abolished by Government of India Act 1935. The Government of India Act 1858 also added the term Viceroy of India to the office, to be formally known as Viceroy and Governor-General of India, so as to reflect the role of Governor-General of India as the representative of the British Monarch to the feudal rulers of the princely states. From the year 1858 onwards, the appointments of Viceroy and Governor-General of India were made by British Crown at the advice of Secretary of State for India. The title of Viceroy of India was abandoned in 1947 when India and Pakistan gained their independence. The office of Governor-General continued to exist in each of the new dominions until they adopted republican constitutions in 1950 and 1956 respectively. ==List of Governors-General==
