Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Section 5 of the Limitation Act, 1963 permits "Appeals and applications other than applications under Order XXI CPC" to be admitted after the prescribed period on sufficient cause. It does not extend to suits or to Order XXI execution applications, and election petitions under the Representation of the People Act, 1951 follow their own special limitation regime.
