  4. D.

    Central Board of Film Certification

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Concept

An institutional acronym is expanded by matching each letter with the initial word of the body’s official name. Exact wording matters because terms such as Board, Bureau, Censors, and Certification describe different structures or functions.

Application

Match the letters in CBFC in their written order:

  1. C corresponds to Central.

  2. B corresponds to Board.

  3. F corresponds to Film.

  4. C corresponds to Certification.

Contrast

  • Central Board of Film Censors preserves the initials but replaces the current official function “Certification” with “Censors.”

  • Central Bureau of Film Certification replaces the official organizational term “Board” with “Bureau.”

  • Central Bureau of Film Censors changes both “Board” and “Certification.”

  • Central Board of Film Certification matches the official name word for word.

Cross-check

The four words yield the initials C-B-F-C, and the name identifies both the organization type and its certification function.

Therefore, CBFC stands for Central Board of Film Certification.
