Discussion
Which of the following are criminal courts ?
(a) Executive magistrate court
(b) Judicial magistrate of first class court
(c) Metropolitan magistrate court
(d) Munsif court
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Answer: A
The criminal courts are (a), (b) and (c) only.
Section 6 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 lists the classes of criminal courts: Courts of Session, Judicial Magistrates of the first and second class, Metropolitan Magistrates and Executive Magistrates. Executive Magistrates exercise preventive and other powers under the Code, so their courts are criminal courts.
A Munsif court is the lowest civil court, dealing with civil suits of limited value, so any option that includes (d) is wrong.
