Correct answer A
The presumption of continuance of life is in section "110" of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (formerly section 107 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872): when it is shown that a man was alive within thirty years, the burden of proving that he is dead is on the person who affirms it.
