The correct option is C) Section 113B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872.
Section 113B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 deals with the presumption as to dowry death. This section creates a presumption that if a woman dies under unnatural circumstances within seven years of her marriage and it is shown that she was subjected to cruelty or harassment by her husband or his relatives in connection with demand for dowry, the court shall presume that such death was caused by them. This section is completely unrelated to electronic records.
Sections 65A and 65B of the Indian Evidence Act were inserted by the Information Technology Act, 2000, to provide for the admissibility of electronic records as evidence. Section 67A, also inserted by the IT Act, deals with the proof as to the digital signature. Section 22A, likewise inserted by the IT Act, makes oral admissions as to the contents of electronic records not relevant unless the genuineness of the electronic record is in question. Thus, A, B, and D are related to electronic records, while C is not.
