Which of the provision of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 prescribes the essential elements of estoppels?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 121 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (formerly section 115 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872) states the general rule of estoppel. If a person intentionally causes or permits another to believe a fact through a declaration, act or omission, and the other acts on that belief, the person cannot later deny that fact in proceedings between them. The rule therefore links the representation or conduct with reliance by the other person.
