Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

BNS s.190 fixes liability on a member of an unlawful assembly for an offence committed in prosecution of the common object specified in s.189(1), or one known to be a likely consequence of it; common intention and active participation in the specific act are not required, so only knowledge of probability and the unlawful common object matter.
