Indian Evidence Act was drafted by:

The Indian Evidence Act, 1872 is an Indian statute that sets out the rules and procedures for the admissibility and evaluation of evidence in Indian courts. It was enacted by the British Parliament and was based on the English Law of Evidence. Sir James F. Stephen was the principal architect of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. He was a British civil servant, legal scholar, and judge who served as the Law Member of the Viceroy's Council in India from 1869 to 1872. During his tenure, he drafted the Indian Evidence Act, which was later enacted by the British Parliament. Therefore, option (B) is the correct answer as Sir James F. Stephen drafted the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. While Lord Macaulay was responsible for drafting the Indian Penal Code, Huxley was a famous biologist and Sir D. F. Mulla was a legal scholar who wrote commentary on the Indian Contract Act and the Indian Succession Act.
