Who among the following is not protected under the term ‘legal disability’ as per the Limitation Act, 1963?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Indigence, meaning lack of financial means, is not a legal disability listed in section 6 of the Limitation Act, 1963. That section covers a person who is a minor, insane or within the statutory category termed an "idiot" when time begins to run, and provides the prescribed relief after the disability ends. Financial inability has separate procedural provisions; it does not itself place a person in section 6.
