The term “Revision” means
A)
A re-examination or careful reading of a case for the purpose of correction or improvement
B)
A factual change of trial Court decision
C)
None of the above
D)
Both (a) and (b)
In the context of the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC), 'Revision' (specifically under Section 115) refers to the power of the High Court to call for the record of any case decided by a subordinate court to ensure that the subordinate court has exercised its jurisdiction legally.
1. Option (a) is correct because, in a general and legal sense, revision is a process of re-examining a decision to correct jurisdictional errors or legal irregularities. It is a supervisory power used to ensure the correctness of the legal process.
2. Option (b) is incorrect because Revision is primarily concerned with 'jurisdictional errors' (e.g., exercising jurisdiction not vested in it, failing to exercise jurisdiction, or acting with material irregularity). It is not a mechanism for a 'factual change' of a decision; factual findings are generally not disturbed in revision unless they are perverse or based on no evidence.
3. Since (b) is incorrect, (d) is also incorrect.
Therefore, the most accurate definition among the choices provided is the general meaning of revision as a re-examination for correction.

An agency comes to an end:-
A)
By performance of contract
B)
By agreement between the principal and the agent
C)
By renunciation of his authority by the agent
D)
All of the above
Under the Law of Contract (specifically the sections dealing with Agency, such as Sections 201 to 210 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872), an agency relationship is terminated through several methods.
1. **Performance of Contract (Option a):** When the specific task or purpose for which the agent was appointed is completed, the agency naturally comes to an end.
2. **Agreement (Option b):** Since agency is a contractual relationship, the principal and the agent can mutually agree to terminate the relationship at any time.
3. **Renunciation (Option c):** An agent may terminate the agency by renouncing their authority (giving notice to the principal that they will no longer act as the agent).
Other modes of termination include the revocation of authority by the principal, the death or insanity of either party, or the insolvency of the principal. Since options a, b, and c are all legally valid methods of terminating an agency, the correct answer is 'All of the above'.

Provision regarding Res sub judice are–
A)
Mandatory
B)
Discretionary
C)
Not Mandatory
D)
Directory
The provision regarding 'Res sub judice' is contained in Section 10 of the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC), 1908. Section 10 mandates that no court shall proceed with the trial of any suit in which the matter in issue is also directly and substantially in issue in a previously instituted suit between the same parties. The language used in the statute is 'no Court shall proceed with the trial', which indicates a prohibition. Therefore, the stay of the trial of the subsequent suit is mandatory once the conditions for Res sub judice are satisfied; the court does not have the discretion to continue the trial if the legal requirements of Section 10 are met. Consequently, it is a mandatory provision, not a discretionary or directory one.

The bailment of goods as security for payment of a debt is called
A)
mortgage
B)
pledge
C)
bailment
D)
none of these
Step-by-step reasoning: 1. Definition of Bailment: Bailment is the delivery of goods by one person to another for some purpose, upon a contract that they shall, when the purpose is accomplished, be returned or otherwise disposed of according to the directions of the person delivering them. 2. Definition of Pledge: Under the Indian Contract Act, 1872 (Section 172), a 'Pledge' is defined specifically as the bailment of goods as security for payment of a debt, or performance of a promise. 3. Analysis of Options: (a) Mortgage refers to the transfer of an interest in specific immovable property for securing the payment of money; it does not apply to 'goods' (movable property). (b) Pledge fits the definition perfectly as it is a special type of bailment where goods are used as collateral. (c) Bailment is the general genus; while a pledge is a bailment, the question asks for the specific term for bailment used as security, which is 'pledge'. Therefore, option (b) is the most precise answer.

B)
1901
C)
1911

This census provided the colonial administration with the first comprehensive data on the population distribution and tribal demographics of the region. Options a (1891), c (1911), and d (1921) are incorrect as they either precede the administrative stability required for a general census in the hills or follow the initial 1901 count.
