In the context of the CrPC and the NDPS Act, 1985, which of the following statements is correct?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The NDPS Act prevails where its special provisions conflict with the CrPC. Section 51 applies the Code to warrants, arrests, searches and seizures only so far as the provisions are consistent with the Act. Section 36C likewise applies ordinary procedure to Special Courts subject to the Act's own provisions; this is a statutory rule, not a free choice for the court.
