D Correct answer
Explanation

Agreements against public policy include trading with aliens, trafficking in public offices, and marriage brokerage (Staab v. Staab). Contracts for impossible acts are void under Section 23 of Contract Act due to impossibility, NOT as a public policy ground. The question correctly identifies the exception.
