Answer is b is correct. The Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939 provides various grounds for the dissolution of marriage, many of which are based on the principles of the Maliki School of Islamic jurisprudence. Therefore, option (b) is the correct answer.
Question2:- Which Article of the Indian Constitution is considered the "heart and soul" of the Constitution by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar?
  • A) Article 14
  • B) Article 19
  • C) Article 21
  • D) Article 32
Answer is d is correct. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, the chief architect of the Indian Constitution, referred to Article 32 as the "heart and soul" of the Constitution. This article guarantees the right to constitutional remedies, allowing a person to move the Supreme Court for the enforcement of their fundamental rights. Without this article, the fundamental rights would be meaningless, as there would be no effective remedy for their violation. Therefore, option (d) is the correct answer.
Question3:- Under the Specific Relief Act, 1963, specific relief may be granted for:
  • A) Enforcing penal laws.
  • B) Enforcing individual civil rights.
  • C) Enforcing criminal laws.
  • D) Enforcing administrative orders.
Answer is b is correct. Section 4 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963 specifies that specific relief can be granted only for the purpose of enforcing individual civil rights and not for enforcing penal laws. Therefore, option (b) is the correct answer.
Question4:- Which of the following is an example of 'pecuniary bias'?
  • A) A judge hearing a case involving his close friend.

  • C) A judge hearing a case where he has a personal grudge against one of the parties.
  • D) A judge hearing a case where he has a pre-conceived opinion about the matter.
Answer is b is correct. 'Pecuniary bias' is a type of bias where the decision-maker has a financial interest in the outcome of the case. The presence of such an interest, no matter how small, is enough to disqualify a person from acting as a judge. It's a strict rule of disqualification because it is assumed that no one can be an impartial judge in a case where they stand to gain or lose financially. Therefore, option (b) is the correct answer.
