Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Section 2(a) of the Limitation Act includes all three categories within “applicant.” It covers a petitioner, a person from or through whom the applicant derives the right to apply, and a person whose estate the applicant represents as executor, administrator or another representative. The definition therefore extends beyond the person who directly files the application.
