The Pitt's India Act of 1784 was an act of the British Parliament that reformed the governance of British India.
The act was introduced by Prime Minister William Pitt the Younger, and was a response to the perceived failures of the previous system of governance established by the Regulating Act of 1773.
The act created a new system of governance for India, with the establishment of the Board of Control and the Court of Directors.
The Board of Control was a body of six members appointed by the British government, and was responsible for overseeing the policies and actions of the Court of Directors, the body that had previously been responsible for the governance of British India.
The Court of Directors retained some powers, but was subject to greater oversight and control from the Board of Control.
The act also established a system of double government, in which the British government and the East India Company shared power over India.
The Governor-General of India was given more power under the act, and was made responsible for the administration of British India.
The act also attempted to address the issue of corruption within the East India Company, by establishing a system of checks and balances on the actions of its officials in India.
The Pitt's India Act of 1784 was an important step in the process of British control and governance of India, and laid the foundation for further reforms in the following years
