Correct Answer: Pitt's India Act, 1784


Solution : The correct option is Pitt's India Act, 1784.

The Pitt's India Act of 1784 established dual control over British India. It instituted the board of control in London, representing the British government, and the Governor-general in Council in India, led by East India Company officials. The board managed major political and financial affairs, while the Governor-general handled day-to-day administration and trade. This dual system aimed to regulate the East India Company's activities, striking a balance between governmental oversight and the company's commercial operations.
