Determining the Chronological Order of Acts

The question asks us to arrange five specific Indian Acts in chronological order based on their year of enactment. This involves identifying the year each Act came into force and then sequencing them from earliest to latest.

Act Details and Enactment Years

To solve this, let's find the enactment year for each mentioned Act:

  • D. Indian Treasure Trove Act: Enacted in 1878. This Act deals with treasure found within the soil of India.
  • E. Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act: Enacted in 1958. This legislation provides for the preservation of ancient monuments and archaeological sites and other objects of historical value.
  • B. Antiquities and Art Treasures Act: Enacted in 1972. This Act prohibits the unauthorized export of antiquities and art treasures.
  • A. Public Records Act: Enacted in 1993. This Act makes provision for the management, administration and preservation of public records.
  • C. Right to Information Act (RTI): Enacted in 2005. This landmark Act grants citizens the right to access information from the government.

Arranging Acts Chronologically

Now, let's arrange these Acts based on their enactment years, starting with the oldest:

Act LetterAct NameEnactment YearOrder
DIndian Treasure Trove Act18781st
EAncient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act19582nd
BAntiquities and Art Treasures Act19723rd
APublic Records Act19934th

The chronological order is therefore D, E, B, A, C.
