Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Under s.16(2)(b) of the CPC (Amendment) Act, 2002, the restrictive proviso added to Order VI Rule 17 does not apply to pleadings that were filed or had already been completed before the 1999 and 2002 Amendment Acts came into force, so those earlier pleadings continue to be governed by the pre-amendment position.
