Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Section 346 of the BNSS (formerly section 309 CrPC) governs prompt, ordinarily day-to-day inquiry or trial and restrictions on adjournments. Its proviso requires the inquiry or trial of the specified rape offences under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 to be completed within two months from the date of filing of the charge-sheet. This is a rule for designated cases, not a universal limitation period extinguishing every criminal trial.
