Explanation:

Let’s break it down:

- Option 1: 511 sections

The Evidence Act, 1872 does not have 511 sections. That's actually the number of sections in the Indian Penal Code, not the Evidence Act.

- Option 2: 495 sections

This is also incorrect. No big legal act in India that’s relevant here matches this section count.

- Option 3: 167 sections

Here’s the thing: This is the right answer. The Indian Evidence Act has exactly 167 sections. It is organized into three parts, covering everything from what counts as “evidence” to how it should be handled.

- Option 4: None of the above

That wouldn’t be correct because, as just mentioned above, 167 is spot on.

Option 3: 167 is correct.

Short version: The Indian Evidence Act, 1872 contains exactly 167 sections, not 511.
