Indian Evidence Act (IEA) 1872 Admission and Rejection of Evidence

According to the practice in England, all facts are admissible; subject to which of the following condition?

The best evidence connecting the fact in issue is admissible

No hearsay evidence is admissible

Either (A) or (B)

Both (A) and (B)

Let’s break it down:

- Option 1: "The best evidence connecting the fact in issue is admissible."

This means courts prefer the original, most direct evidence tied to the case—think of original documents over photocopies.

- Option 2: "No hearsay evidence is admissible."

Hearsay—stuff someone heard from someone else—usually isn’t allowed, unless a clear exception applies. This keeps trials fair and reliable.

- Option 3: "Either (A) or (B)."

This would mean you only need to meet one of the conditions, not both.

- Option 4: "Both (A) and (B)."

In practice, English law requires both: best evidence should be presented, and hearsay is generally excluded.

So, the correct answer is:

Option 4: Both (A) and (B).
