Under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, which of the following is incorrect?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Under section 2(1)(z) of the BNSS (formerly section 2(x) CrPC), a warrant-case concerns an offence punishable with death, imprisonment for life or imprisonment for a term exceeding two years. The statement using a three-year threshold is therefore incorrect. The classification depends on the punishment prescribed for the offence, not the sentence ultimately imposed.
