Legal Studies Question on Administrative Law
Which of the following means ‘Fact’ as per BSA, 2023?
Observable physical events
Any mental condition of which a person is conscious
Legal documents, both recorded and written
A document filed in the Court
Any mental condition of which a person is conscious
Solution
The term ‘Fact’ as per BSA, 2023 refers to mental conditions or states that a person is consciously aware of. This implies that ‘Fact’ is related to something internal to the person, like their thoughts or awareness.
Therefore, option b) Any mental condition of which a person is conscious is correct. Option a) Observable physical events refers to events that are external and visible, but not necessarily related to a person’s conscious mental state.
Option c) Legal documents, both recorded and written, are not mental conditions but formal written records.
Option d) A document filed in the Court is a legal document, not a mental condition or fact as per the definition in BSA, 2023.
