Model Answer
(B) Details of personal property and criminal cases pending against the candidate
Explanation
This is a factual recall question from the chapter on Political Parties (Democratic Politics, Class 10). The Supreme Court ordered that candidates must file an affidavit disclosing their personal assets/property and any criminal cases pending against them, enabling voters to make informed choices. This is a key reform related to electoral accountability.
