Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Rioting is defined in section 191(1) (A–2), affray in section 194(1) (B–4), and abetment in section 45 (C–3). Section 62 supplies the general punishment for an attempt where the Sanhita makes no express provision for that attempt (D–1). The resulting code is A–2, B–4, C–3, D–1. Sections 191(2) and 194(2) are the separate punishment provisions for rioting and affray. (These provisions were formerly sections 146, 159, 107 and 511 IPC.)
