Which Act passed by the British Government of India abolished the Council of India?

Government of India Act of 1935

The correct answer is Option 3- Government of India Act of 1935

The Government of India Act 1935 abolished the Council of India.

The Council of India was a body of advisors to the Secretary of State for India, who was a member of the British Cabinet. The Council was abolished in 1935 as part of a wider process of constitutional reform in India. The Government of India Act 1935 introduced a new system of government in India, with greater autonomy for the provinces and a central legislature with elected members.

The other options are incorrect:

• The Indian Independence Act 1947 granted independence to India and Pakistan, and therefore did not abolish the Council of India.
• The India Council Act 1892 expanded the membership of the Council of India, but it did not abolish it.
• The Government of India Act 1919 did not abolish the Council of India, but it did reduce its powers.
• The Charter Act 1853 did not abolish the Council of India, but it did make some changes to its composition and functions.
