Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Concept

In a match-the-list question, establish each pair independently from the governing factual record, and only then convert the pairs into the supplied numerical code.

A code is acceptable only when every pair is consistent; one correct pair does not validate the whole sequence.

Application

  1. The Special Marriage Act was enacted in 1954, so A maps to 2.

  2. The Dowry Prohibition Act was enacted in 1961, so B maps to 4.

  3. The Equal Remuneration Act was enacted in 1976, so C maps to 1.

  4. The Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act was enacted in 1986, so D maps to 3.
