Solution

The correct options are
B Indian Councils Act 1909
C Government of India Act 1919
The Indian Councils Act 1909 and the Government of India Act 1919 introduced elective elements for the natives. But the common people were not the ones who were voting. A limited number of persons were granted the right to vote on the basis of certain high qualifications, like the ownership of property, payment of income tax, payment of municipal tax, and the holding of land.
