In Indian Philosophy, we find that the law of karma is rejected :

  • A.Only by Cārvākas
  • B.by no school whatsoever
  • C.by all heterodox schools
  • D.only by atheistic schools

Answer: A

The law of karma is rejected only by the Carvakas.

Every other Indian school accepts karma in some form, including the heterodox Buddhist and Jaina schools and the non-theistic Sankhya and Mimamsa. The Carvakas, who accept only perception and deny a soul that survives the body, reject karma and rebirth.

So it is not rejected by all heterodox schools (Buddhism and Jainism keep it), nor by atheistic schools as such, and it is not true that no school rejects it.
