In 2013, Daman and Diu came under the jurisdiction of which High Court?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

In 2013 the Union Territory of Daman and Diu was within the jurisdiction of the "Bombay" High Court, extended to it by the High Court at Bombay (Extension of Jurisdiction to Goa, Daman and Diu) Act, 1981. Goa has a bench of the Bombay High Court rather than a High Court of its own, and the Gujarat and Rajasthan High Courts do not cover the territory.

Current law: Daman and Diu, now part of the merged Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu, still falls under the Bombay High Court.
