    2. Mining and Mineral Development (Regulation) Act 1957
    3. Customs Act 1962
    4. Indian Forest Act 1927
    Which of the above Acts have relevance to/bearing on the biodiversity conservation in the country?

    A)  1 and 3           

    B)  2, 3 and 4

    C)  1, 2, 3 and 4                

    D)  None

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Imports and Exports (Control) Act, 1947 and the Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Ordinance, 1992 (Ord. 11 of 1992) got repealed with the enactment of Foreign Trade (Development and Regulation) Act, 1992. But still the answer remains the same because the new act also has "bearing" on biodiversity conservation.
