The British Acts in India refer to a series of laws and regulations passed by the British government during their colonial rule over India. These acts played a significant role in shaping the political, social, and economic landscape of the Indian subcontinent. Some notable acts include the Regulating Act of 1773, which established the Governor-Generalship in Bengal and laid the foundation for British administration in India. The Indian Councils Act of 1861 expanded the legislative and executive functions of the local Indian councils, while the Government of India Act of 1935 granted limited autonomy to the provinces. These acts ultimately resulted in the centralization of power within the hands of the British colonial government and had a profound impact on the struggle for Indian independence.
