Explanation

Section 151 of the Indian Evidence Act grants courts the inherent power to forbid indecent or scandalous questions during examination. It states that the court may forbid any question which it regards as indecent or scandalous, even if such questions might otherwise be relevant. Sections 149 and 150 deal with other examination-related issues like improper questions and questions intended to insult or annoy.
