    Solution

    “Fact in issue” under the Bhartiya Sakshya Adhiniyam refers to those facts that directly relate to the matter under judicial inquiry—facts upon which the right, liability, or legal relationship of the parties depends. These are the core points in dispute and are determinative of the case outcome. They are distinguished from background facts or already settled facts. Only facts in issue need to be proved or disproved with evidence. Option C is correct as it succinctly captures the meaning and role of facts in issue in adjudication processes.
