Correct option is A
The correct answer is (a). Section 24(1) of the Cr.P.C. was amended to include the words "one or more additional public prosecutors," allowing for the appointment of multiple additional prosecutors to assist the Public Prosecutor in handling cases.
Information Booster:
The inclusion of additional public prosecutors under Section 24(1) enhances the capacity of the prosecution to handle multiple or complex cases simultaneously, ensuring more efficient legal proceedings.
Additional Knowledge:
·
(b): This option incorrectly specifies a minimum number of additional prosecutors.
·
(c): This option also incorrectly specifies a higher minimum number, which is not stipulated in the law.
·
(d): Option (d) is incorrect as the correct addition to the section is indeed "one or more additional public prosecutors."
