Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Section 2(28) BNS (formerly section 21 IPC) includes officers of a Court such as a liquidator, receiver or commissioner performing the specified duties, arbitrators to whom matters are referred by a Court or competent public authority, and officers empowered to prepare electoral rolls or conduct elections. Each listed category is therefore included; a private arbitrator is not covered merely by that title.
