In which year was the Pitts India Act introduced?

A. 1757
B. 1777
C. 1784
D. 1799
Correct Answer: C. 1784

The Pitt's India Act was introduced in 1784 by the British Parliament. This act was a significant legislative measure aimed at rectifying the shortcomings of the Regulating Act of 1773 and asserting greater parliamentary control over the British East India Company's administration in India. It established a Board of Control to oversee the Company's political and military affairs, effectively creating a dual system of control.

  • 1757 is notable for the Battle of Plassey, a pivotal event in British colonial expansion in India, not the introduction of the Pitt's India Act.
  • 1777 and 1799 are incorrect dates for the introduction of this specific act. The act was a direct response to the need for reform following earlier legislation.
