Pitts India Act and Charter Act of 1833 (in Hindi)

The Act constituted a department of state in England Known as the "Board of Control". Whose special function was to control the political affairs of the Court of Directors. However, the Act allowed the Court of Directors to manage the commercial affairs. Thus introducing the Dual System of governance by the company and by a parliamentary Board which lasted till 1858. The act of 1833 undoubtedly brought about significant and far reaching changes in the constitution of India. The company having lost its commercial privileges could now concentrate on administration. Also, the provision for the codification of law was of great consequence as before 1833, the laws were so imperfect that in most of the cases it was almost impossible to ascertain what exactly the law was. There were several types of laws enforceable in India and at times it used to become a difficult question to decide which law was applicable in a particular case. Also, the provision concerning the abolition of slavery irrespective of religion, place of birth, descent and colour is another lendable feature of the Act. However, it might have been passed.
