The instructor reviews a chronological list of acts, pointing to "1) रगुलेटिंग एक्ट, 1773" and "3) पिट्स इंडिया अधिनियम, 1784". He draws circles around the years and writes "CC" and "100C" next to the entries. He then moves to a detailed slide for the Pitt's India Act, explaining the "दोहरे प्रशासन" (Dual Administration). The slide shows a diagram splitting administration into "व्यापारिक मामलों के लिए - बोर्ड ऑफ डायरेक्टर्स" (Commercial - Board of Directors) and "राजनीतिक मामलों के लिए - बोर्ड ऑफ कंट्रोल" (Political - Board of Control). The lecture proceeds to the 1793 Charter Act, noting salary provisions. Finally, the 1813 Charter Act is discussed, extending the charter for 20 years and ending the commercial monopoly.
This segment provides a structured overview of legislative milestones shaping British rule in India. It moves from a high-level timeline to specific provisions of key acts. The Pitt's India Act is highlighted as a pivotal moment establishing dual control. The Charter Acts are shown to progressively reduce the Company's power, ending its monopoly and introducing educational reforms. The visual aids, including diagrams and bullet points, reinforce the chronological and thematic progression of constitutional development.
