Solution

The correct option is C 1, 3, and 4
Indians were nominated to the executive council of Viceroy under the Indian Councils Act of 1861. The Indian Councils Act of 1892 increased the strength of the regional and central legislative bodies. The legislative council was allowed to discuss budget-related issues, and this marginally increased its relevance. The government could now be questioned about its policies.
