As per the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, which one of the following offences cannot be committed at a private place?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 194(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 159 IPC) requires two or more people fighting in a public place and thereby disturbing public peace. A purely private place therefore does not satisfy affray’s location element. Murder, assault and rioting have no corresponding universal public-place requirement.
