Arrange the following enactments of social legislations in chronological order.
A. Domestic Violence Act
B. Hindu Marriage Act
C. Right to Property Act
D. Special Marriage Act
E. Hindu Succession Act
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

1. D. Special Marriage Act (1954)

2. B. Hindu Marriage Act (1955)

3. E. Hindu Succession Act (1956)

4. C. Right to Property Act (This is a constitutional amendment, the 44th, which removed property as a fundamental right in 1978, or the original right that was frequently amended; in the context of other social acts, using the 44th Amendment date makes the most sense. If referring to a specific "Right to Property Act" it would be the Repealing Act 1978 or an older reference which is less clear. Using 1978 for the major shift as a landmark "enactment" is standard in these lists.)

5. A. Domestic Violence Act (2005)

The correct option is 1. D, B, E, C, A.

Additional Knowledge and Information Booster

The Special Marriage Act (1954) allows for a civil marriage between any two individuals, irrespective of their religion, establishing a secular framework for marriage.

The Hindu Marriage Act (1955) and the Hindu Succession Act (1956) were part of the major post-independence effort to codify and reform personal laws for Hindus (which includes Buddhists, Jains, and Sikhs). The 1956 Act introduced significant reforms by giving daughters the right to inherit property.

The Right to Property was originally a Fundamental Right under Article 19(1)(f) and Article 31 of the Constitution. It was removed from the list of Fundamental Rights and made a mere constitutional/legal right (Article 300A) by the 44th Constitutional Amendment Act in 1978. The listing refers to this landmark change in legal status, not a specific "Act" name itself.

The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act (2005) is a major piece of social legislation that provides civil remedies and protection to women against physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, and economic abuse within a domestic relationship.
