Which pair of provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 respectively covers waging, attempting or abetting war against the Government of a foreign State at peace with the Government of India, and committing or preparing to commit depredation on the territories of a foreign State at peace with the Government of India?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
Section 153 BNS covers waging, attempting or abetting war against the Government of any foreign State at peace with the Government of India. Section 154 covers committing, or making preparations to commit, depredation on the territories of such a State (formerly sections 125 and 126 IPC, which referred to an Asiatic Power or other Power in alliance or at peace with India). Section 155 instead concerns knowingly receiving property taken by such war or depredation, and section 151 concerns assaulting the President or a Governor with intent to compel or restrain the exercise of lawful power.
