Sir Harry Graham Haig KCSI CIE JP ICS (13 April 1881 – 14 June 1956) was a British administrator in India. He twice served as Governor of the United Provinces.

Haig remained a staunch critic of the Mahatma's policy of attacking British rule while at the same time negotiating with the government. In his position as Home Member on the Council he was responsible for overseeing Civil Martial Law. On 5 December 1934 he succeeded the Labour supporter, Sir Malco
