Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 127 of the BNS defines wrongful confinement as wrongfully restraining a person so as to prevent him from proceeding beyond "certain circumscribing limits". Once Mathura was reached, B was kept in the moving car against his repeated requests, so A wrongfully confined him; B's willing entry at the start does not cover what followed, and abduction needs force or deceit used to make a person go from a place.
