Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 330(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 443 IPC) defines lurking house-trespass as house-trespass committed "having taken precautions to conceal such house-trespass from some person who has a right to exclude or eject the trespasser". An open trespass, a trespass merely to insult, or a forcible entry is not lurking house-trespass. House-breaking is separately defined in section 330(2).
