Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Order XXXVIII rule 1(a) allows the court to issue a warrant to arrest the defendant and bring him to show cause why he should not furnish security for appearance where, with intent to delay the plaintiff, avoid the court's process or obstruct execution, he has absconded or left the local limits, is about to do so, or has disposed of or removed his property from those limits. Lack of property in India, nationality or missing one hearing is not a ground under the rule.
