Correct Answer:
C. 1950
Explanation:
The Supreme Court of India was officially established on January 26, 1950, coinciding with the date the Constitution of India came into effect. It succeeded the Federal Court of India, which had been operational since 1937 under the Government of India Act of 1935. While the constitutional provision for the court took effect on the 26th, its formal inauguration and first sitting were held two days later, on January 28, 1950, in the Chamber of Princes within the Parliament building. This transition marked the replacement of the British Privy Council as the nation's highest judicial authority.
