Which one of the following is a suit of civil nature?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
A suit for 'rights to Yajmanvritis' (hereditary priestly office/right to receive offerings attached to a religious office or property) is recognized by courts as a suit of a civil nature under Section 9 of the CPC, whereas suits against mere caste expulsion, purely religious ceremonies, or voluntary offerings without right to office are not suits of a civil nature.
