My 5/5 Disaster in BSN: Where Even Dying Declarations Went Wrong

I still remember the mock test where I scored a meager 40/100 in BSN. It was a disaster, and even my 2.5 months of CLAT prep couldn't save me. I was particularly weak in Section B, where 4 out of 7 questions came from dying declarations. I got question 3 wrong, which asked about the provisions and exceptions in Section 32 of the Evidence Act. I thought it was a straightforward question, but the options were all ambiguous, and I just picked one. Later, I realized that none of the options correctly stated the provision.

My score didn't improve much even after re-attempting the question. I finally understood the concept after reading through the judgments in Jagannath Vs. State of Orissa, 1954 SCR 787.
