The correct answer is B.

The Workmen’s Compensation Act, 1923 was amended by the Workmen’s Compensation (Amendment) Act, 2009, which came into effect from January 18, 2010. As part of this amendment, the Act was renamed as the Employees’ Compensation Act, 1923.

This renaming reflected a shift in terminology from “workmen” to the broader term “employees”. The other options are incorrect names for the Act.
