Correct option is D
The correct answer is (d) Weapons of Mass Destruction and their Delivery Systems (Prohibition of Unlawful Activities) Act, 2005
The Weapons of Mass Destruction and their Delivery Systems (Prohibition of Unlawful Activities) Amendment Bill 2022 was introduced to amend the Weapons of Mass Destruction and their Delivery Systems (Prohibition of Unlawful Activities) Act, 2005.
The 2005 Act was primarily established to prohibit unlawful activities related to weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their delivery systems. The act ensures that India adheres to its international obligations towards non-proliferation of WMDs.
It covers all aspects of chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons and their delivery systems, outlining penalties for violations and providing mechanisms for enforcement and compliance.
The amendment aims to include provisions to also curb the financing of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and their delivery systems, a step that complements existing legal frameworks.
