Correct option is C
Under Section 11 of BNS, 1860, solitary confinement can be imposed as a part of a sentence, but it is subject to certain limitations. If the term of imprisonment exceeds one year, the term of solitary confinement cannot exceed three months.
Information Booster:
· Section 11 of BNS provides that for imprisonment exceeding one year, the maximum period of solitary confinement is three months. This limit ensures that even if solitary confinement is imposed, it does not extend beyond a certain duration to avoid undue harshness.
Additional Information:
· Option (a): One month is the limit for imprisonment not exceeding six months, not for sentences exceeding one year.
· Option (b): Two months is the limit for imprisonment exceeding six months but not one year.
· Option (d): There is a clear limit under the law, and the term of solitary confinement cannot be indefinite.
