Which of the following is not secondary evidence ?

  • A.copies made from the original by mechanical processes which in themselves ensure the accuracy of the copy, and copies compared with such copies
  • B.oral accounts of the contents of a document given by some person who has himself seen it
  • C.written admissions
  • D.document itself produced for the inspection of the Court

Answer: D

The one that is not secondary evidence is the document itself produced for the inspection of the Court.

Under the Adhiniyam, primary evidence means the document itself produced for the inspection of the court. Secondary evidence includes certified copies, copies made by mechanical processes that ensure accuracy and copies compared with them, counterparts, oral accounts of a document's contents by someone who has seen it, and, newly added by the Adhiniyam, oral and written admissions and the evidence of a person skilled in examining documents.

Options A, B and C are all forms of secondary evidence; only D is primary evidence.
