Correct Answer:
B. Section 78
This question requires specific knowledge of legislative drafting and the structure of legal acts. Rules are typically made under an enabling provision within a parent act. For the Punjab Enforcement and Regulation Act 2024, Section 78 is the specific provision that grants the authority to formulate and enact these rules. This section empowers the relevant government body to establish detailed operational procedures and guidelines necessary for the effective implementation of the Act.
- Sections 10, 40, and 58 are incorrect as they do not contain the enabling power for rule-making within this specific legislative framework.
Identifying the correct enabling section is fundamental to understanding the legal basis and validity of any subsidiary legislation.
