    Question

    Which of the following is the wrong statement in respect of leading questions?

    A.

    Leading questions must not be asked in examination-in-chief, cross-examination or re-examination.

    B.

    Leading questions must not be asked in cross-examination.

    C.

    Leading questions may not be asked in examination-in-chief or re-examination, if objected by the adversary.

    D.

    Leading questions shall be permitted by the Court in examination-in-chief, or re-examination as to matters which are introductory or undisputed or which have already been sufficiently proved.

    Correct option is B


    Leading questions are permitted in cross-examination under Section 138 of Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam. The statement in option (B) is incorrect, as leading questions are typically restricted in examination-in-chief and re-examination unless allowed by the court.
