Explanation:

Sure, let’s break it down:

- Section 78 – This is the one you’re looking for. It covers the proof of “other official documents,” like acts, orders, notifications from governments, proceedings of legislatures, and so on. Basically, how you can legally show these documents in court.

- Section 82 – This one’s about the presumption as to document admissible in England without proof of seal or signature—totally different context, not about Indian official records.

- Section 71 – Deals with proof when attesting witness denies the execution of a document. It’s more about private documents, not official ones.

- Section 74 – Defines what public documents are, but doesn’t cover proof of “other official documents.” It just helps you understand what counts as public.

So, to keep it simple—

Option 1: Section 78 is absolutely correct.
