Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Section 21 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (formerly section 23 of the Indian Evidence Act) expressly regulates admissions in civil cases, especially admissions made on an agreed without-prejudice basis. Section 23 concerns confessions to the police and, in the proviso to sub-section (2), discovery information from an accused in police custody; section 47 concerns previous good character in criminal proceedings; section 138 concerns accomplice testimony against an accused. Therefore section 21 is the civil provision among the choices.
