Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 6 of the BNSS provides that, besides the High Courts and the Courts constituted under any other law, there shall be in every State four classes of Criminal Courts: Courts of Session, Judicial Magistrates of the first class, Judicial Magistrates of the second class and Executive Magistrates. Metropolitan Magistrates are not among them, as the BNSS has done away with the separate category of Metropolitan Magistrates (formerly s.6 CrPC).

Courts of Session, Judicial Magistrates of the second class and Executive Magistrates are all expressly listed in section 6.
