In which year was the Indian Railway Board Act passed and the Railway Board operational since then without statutory authority?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
The Railway Board, responsible for overseeing the management and operations of Indian Railways, has been functioning since 1905 without statutory authority. This historical context is significant as the Railways (Amendment) Bill, 2024 seeks to grant it a formal legal status, consolidating provisions of the Indian Railway Board Act, 1905 into the Railways Act, 1989. This step aims to streamline railway governance and bring historical practices under a modern legislative framework.
