Is it a question paper? Without facts cannot say.

No question is required to be framed for examination in-chief. The evidence in chief shall be on par with the pleadings. It cannot be in the form of arguments or submissions. Refer Supreme Court judgment in the case titled Harish Loyalka And Another vs Dileep Nevatia And Others [2019 SCC OnLine Bom 68],

Cross-examination can make or destroy a case. It is the keystone to a successful trial. Because of the dramatic possibilities inherent in cross-examination, it has become the favourite courtroom device to be exploited by the cinema and television.
The examination of witness by the adverse party shall be called his Cross-Examination. In law, cross-examination is the interrogation of a witness called by one’s opponent. The purpose of cross-examination is not simply to attack an adversary, but to strengthen your own case. Every party has a right to cross-examine a witness produced by his antagonist, in order to test whether the witness has the knowledge of the things he testifies and if, is found that the witness had the means and ability to ascertain the facts about which he testifies, then his memory, his motives, everything may be scrutinized by the cross-examination.
