Which one of the following statements is incorrect ?

Since the Jan Vishwas (Amendment of Provisions) Act, 2023 (in force for this Act from 1 April 2024), section 3(1) of the Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991 requires the owner to reimburse such amount, or provide such other relief, as may be prescribed, and the Schedule that earlier fixed the relief amounts has been omitted; so the statement that the Act itself fixes the relief in a Schedule is incorrect.

The other statements are correct: the Act was enacted to provide immediate relief to persons affected by accidents while handling hazardous substances; section 3(2) makes the liability no-fault, as the claimant need not plead or establish any wrongful act, neglect or default; and section 4(1) obliges every owner to take out insurance before handling any hazardous substance. Section 8 keeps other rights to compensation alive, subject to deduction of the relief paid.
