Under section 514(2) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, the limitation bar does not extend to offences punishable with imprisonment exceeding how many years?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 514(2) BNSS (formerly section 468(2) CrPC) prescribes limitation only through offences punishable with imprisonment not exceeding three years. Its statutory bar therefore does not apply to an offence punishable with imprisonment exceeding three years; this does not dispense with other procedural requirements.
