In India, which of the following is not a ground in support of Law of Limitation?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Equitable considerations overriding statutory limitation are not a ground for limitation law. Its recognised reasons include protecting defendants from stale claims and lost evidence, and encouraging claimants to act diligently. Statutory provisions allowing extension for sufficient cause remain available where they apply, but hardship alone does not authorise a court to disregard a prescribed period.
