Arrange the following acts according to their enactment years :

(a) Digital Millennium Act
(b) Right to Information Act
(c) Information Technology Act
(d) Indian Copyright Act

  • A.(d), (a), (c), (b)
  • B.(d), (b), (c), (a)
  • C.(a), (d), (b), (c)
  • D.(b), (c), (a), (d)

Answer: A

The order of enactment is (d), (a), (c), (b).

  1. Indian Copyright Act: 1957.
  2. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (USA): 1998.
  3. Information Technology Act: 2000.
  4. Right to Information Act: 2005.

The Copyright Act comes first by four decades, which rules out codes starting with (a) or (b). Of the two codes starting with (d), the other one places the Right to Information Act second, but it is the latest of the four. The usual trap is the IT Act and the DMCA, two years apart: the American law came first.
