The correct answer is Option 3- A, B and D

A) It regulated the acquisition of nuclear weapons (correct )
B) It allowed countries that tested nuclear weapons before 1967 to keep them (correct )
C) It aimed to abolish nuclear weapons entirely (incorrect )
D) It limited the number of countries that could have nuclear weapons (correct )

The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) of 1968 was an arms control treaty in the sense that it regulated the acquisition of nuclear weapons: those countries that had tested and manufactured nuclear weapons before 1967 were allowed to keep their weapons; and those that had not done so were to give up the right to acquire them. The NPT did not abolish nuclear weapons; rather, it limited the number of countries that could have them.
