1These are known as the general principles of law which are commonly recognised by most of legal system in international law which have binding force of pre-emptory norms. (a) Jus legis (b) Jus Cogens (c) Jus Equitus (d) Jus Opinious

Answer

The answer is (b) Jus Cogens.

Article 53 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, 1969 defines a peremptory norm of general international law as a norm accepted and recognised by the international community of States as a whole as a norm from which no derogation is permitted and which can be modified only by a subsequent norm of general international law having the same character. A treaty which at the time of its conclusion conflicts with such a norm is void, and by Article 64 an existing treaty conflicting with a new peremptory norm becomes void and terminates.
