Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Voyeurism is punishable under section 77 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (formerly section 354C IPC). It covers watching or capturing an image of a woman engaged in a private act where she reasonably expects privacy, as well as disseminating such an image. Consent to capturing an image does not itself amount to consent to its dissemination; sections 75, 76 and 78 instead address sexual harassment, disrobing and stalking.
