Correct answer D

Under Explanation I to Section 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, a suit in which the right to property or to an office is contested is a suit of a civil nature, whereas a suit relating purely to a social or caste question such as 'Expulsion from caste' (without any right to property or office) is not a suit of a civil nature.
