Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 100 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 299 IPC) defines culpable homicide: causing death with the specified intention or knowledge. Section 101 then identifies when culpable homicide amounts to murder, subject to its exceptions. Section 100 is therefore the general definition, not a definition restricted to culpable homicide not amounting to murder.
