Directions: Read the following situation and choose the correct answe...
Presumption of Undue Influence
- In this situation, there is a presumption of undue influence because Aryan blindly followed and worshipped the religious head and leader of the temple trust.
- Aryan's devotion and faith in the religious leader could have influenced his decision to transfer his property to Lord Krishna through the temple trust.
- The religious leader may have used his position of authority and trust to manipulate Aryan into making the transfer.

Validity of the Transfer
- Due to the presumption of undue influence, the transfer of property to Lord Krishna through the temple trust may be considered invalid.
- The court may view the transfer as being made under duress or coercion, rather than as a genuine expression of Aryan's free will.
- Aryan's blind devotion and trust in the religious leader could be seen as a form of undue influence that renders the transfer void.

Conclusion
- In conclusion, the transfer of property in this situation is likely not valid due to the presumption of undue influence.
- Aryan's deep religious beliefs and devotion to Lord Krishna may have been exploited by the religious leader, leading to a questionable transfer of property that may not hold up in court.

Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question.Under the POCSO Act, Section 29 and 30 deals with reverse onus clauses. Section 29 states that whenever a person is prosecuted for committing, abetting to commit or attempting to commit an offence under Sections 3,5,7 and 9 of the Act, the Special Court shall presume that the offence has been committed, abetting or attempted to commit the offence unless the accused can prove to the contrary. Section 30 deals with presumption of culpability of the mental state of the accused with regards to any offence committed under the POCSO Act until the defence proves it otherwise. Further, subclause (2) states that the defence has to prove the innocence of the accused beyond reasonable doubt and not on the basis of preponderance of probabilities.Under principles of procedural fairness in the common law the burden of proof lies on the prosecution to prove the case against the accused beyond any reasonable doubt. Until this is proved, there is a presumption of innocence in favour of the accused. The pair of presumptions lead to the commencement of proceedings against the accused with a presumption of guilt. Therefore, it is the prosecution which should prove the concurrent presence of mens rea and actus reus beyond a reasonable doubt. This reverse burden on the accused to prove his innocence was incorporated in the POCSO Act keeping in view the low conviction rate of sexual offences against children.Right to equality as envisaged under article 14 of the constitution encompasses both- Right to equality and equality of opportunity. The equals have to be treated equally and differentiation can only be made on the basis of intelligible differentia having a nexus with the object of the legislation. Article 14 pervades Article 21 and something which is not a valid procedure under Article 14 will automatically not be a fair procedure under Article 21. . The procedure established by law which can be used to curtail the freedom under these section has to be fair, just and reasonable, and non-arbitrary.The Legislature was aware that there were chances of false accusation and hence had put Section 22 of the POCSO which punishes the persons who falsely accuse the other of offences under the Act.Justice Anup Jairam Bhambhani clarified that if a bail plea is being considered before charges have been framed, Section 29 has no application. 'Trial' commences when charges are framed against an accused and not before that, Justice Bhambhani said. Only at the stage when charges are framed does the court apply its judicial mind to whether there is enough evidence on record to frame a precise allegation, which the accused must answer."Therefore, it is only once charges are framed that the accused knows exactly what he is alleged to be guilty of; and therefore, what guilt he is required to rebut," he said, adding an accused cannot be asked to disprove his guilt even before the foundational allegations with supporting evidence that suggest guilt are placed by the prosecution before the court.Q. Shyam is a tenant in the house of the Singh Family and has been residing in the house for more than 30 years. The Singhs are unable to vacate the room and in order to get rid of the tenant Mr. Singh filed a complaint alleging sexual assault being committed on his daughter by Shyam.
