ARTE Act 2009
BRTI Act 2005
CIT Act 2000
DMGNREGA 2005
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. IT Act 2000
1. The chapter's 'Do You Know' box describes the IT Act-2000, enacted from 17th October 2000 and amended in 2008.
2. It prescribes punishment for cyber crime, so option C is correct.
3. The RTE Act deals with the right to education, not cyber crime, so it is ruled out.
4. RTI and MGNREGA concern information access and rural employment respectively, so they are also ruled out.
