Company charter act 1813
The East India Company Act 1813′, also known as the Charter Act of 1813, was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which renewed the charter issued to the British East India Company, and continued the Company’s rule in India. The evangelicals forced the Company, by getting included in the Charter Act of 1813 to appoint a bishop whose headquarters were to be in Calcutta and his see the whole of British India. The whole of the country (India) was to be open to the Christian missionaries. In 1813 the Company’s Charter came once again for renewal. By this time the missionaries prepared the ground through agitation in England for imparting western education in India and for proselytizing activities therein.
