Which of the following Section of BNS, 2023 has repealed the Indian Penal Code, 1860?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Section 358(1) of the BNS expressly repeals the Indian Penal Code. The following subsections contain savings provisions, including protection of liabilities and proceedings arising under the repealed Code. Repeal therefore does not simply erase the legal consequences of earlier offences.
