Explanation

The correct option is D: Both A & B.

The National Green Tribunal cannot exercise its jurisdiction with reference to the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 and the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006. This is because these two acts are not among the seven acts listed under Section 14 of the National Green Tribunal Act, 2010, which defines the scope of the tribunal's jurisdiction. The Public Liability Insurance Act, 1991, on the other hand, is one of the acts that the tribunal can hear cases related to. Therefore, option C is incorrect.
