Why was the Ilbert Bill not passed?

Solution
By this Act, the British tried to introduce equality between British and Indian judges in India. This was resented by the British and they started a Defence Association to defend their special privileges. This reaction provoked counter-agitation by educated Indians. The government ultimately withdrew the bill. The event highlighted the racist attitude of the British in India.
