Which of the following acts enacted by the British Parliament created the dual system of control known as 'Board of Control' and 'Court of Directors' in British Indian administration?

💡 Solution & Explanation

Pitt's India Act of 1784 established a dual system of control by creating the Board of Control to manage political affairs and retaining the Court of Directors for commercial operations of the East India Company. The Regulating Act of 1773 had earlier introduced parliamentary oversight without fully separating political and commercial functions. This dual control system remained operational until the Government of India Act 1858.
