Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 2(10) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 provides that the pronoun "he" and its derivatives are used of any person, whether male, female or transgender. Such words are therefore used in the Sanhita, and they are not confined to one sex. (The former section 8 IPC referred only to any person whether male or female; the BNS adds transgender persons.)
