Explanation:

The Government of India Act 1833 or the Charter Act 1833 was an act of the British Parliament, later renamed the St Helena Act 1833. This extended the charter granted to the East India Company for another 20 years. Features of the Act: ? It made the Governor-General of Bengal as the Governor-General of India and vested in him all civil and military powers. Thus, the act created, for the first time, a Government of India having authority over the entire territorial area possessed by the British in India. Lord William Bentick was the first governor-general of India. ? It deprived the governor of Bombay and Madras of their legislative powers. The GovernorGeneral of India was given exclusive legislative powers for the entire British India. The laws made under the previous acts were called as Regulations while laws made under this act were called as Acts. ? It ended the activities of the East India Company as a commercial body, which became a purely administrative body. This means the company could no longer enjoy its monopoly of China trade and trade of tea which it enjoyed with the Charter Act of 1813. (Hence statement 1 is correct) ? It provided that the company's territories in India were held by it in trust for His Majesty, His heirs and successors'. ? This Act mandated that all laws enacted in India be submitted to the British Parliament and called 'Acts'. The Indian Judiciary Commission was established by law. The first Judiciary Committee was chaired by Lord Macaulay. ? This ensured the decline of the slavery that existed in British India. The governor-general appointed by the Council was ordered to take some action to end the slavery that lived in British India. The 5th Act of 1843 abolished slavery in India. ? The Charter act of 1833 attempted to introduce the system of open competition for selection of civil servants, and started that the Indians should not be debarred from holding any place office, and employment under the company. However this provision was negative after opposition from the court of directors. (Hence statement 2 is correct) The Indian Councils Act 1861 was an act that transformed the Viceroy of India's executive council into a cabinet run on the portfolio system. The Governor-General could promulgate ordinances, without the concurrence of the legislative council, during and emergency. (Hence statement 3 is incorrect)
