Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 232 of the BNS (formerly section 195A IPC) punishes threatening a person, or anyone in whom that person is interested, with injury to person, reputation or property in order to make that person give false evidence. "Threat to give false evidence" is therefore correct. Fabricating false evidence is a different offence under section 228, and section 232 is not a general victim-protection provision.
