Correct Answer: Act of 1909


Solution : The correct answer is the Act of 1909 .

The communal electorate was first established by the Indian Council Act of 1909, also known as the Morley-Minto Reforms. By dividing the populace along communal lines, this was meant to halt the rising tide of nationalism in the nation. The term "father of the communal electorate" refers to Lord Minto.
