The correct answer is (c). The Indian Famine Code, 1883 was prepared by the Famine Commission of 1880, also known as the Strachey Commission. The commission was appointed by the British government in India to investigate the causes of famines and to recommend measures to prevent them. The commission’s report, which was published in 1880, made a number of recommendations, including the establishment of a famine code, which would provide a framework for the government to respond to famines. The Indian Famine Code, 1883, was based on the commission’s recommendations.
