Question

Mental pain is covered under:

A.

Offence of simple hurt.

B.

Offence of grievous hurt.

C.

Not covered under any offence against body.

D.

Sometimes covered under offence of simple hurt

Correct option is C

Mental pain, in isolation, is not explicitly recognized under the offences against the body in the Indian Penal Code. Both simple hurt (Section 114 BNS) and grievous hurt (Section 116 BNS) require a physical injury or harm. The IPC primarily deals with physical injuries under these provisions. Mental pain may be addressed in laws pertaining to harassment, domestic violence, or emotional abuse but not specifically under the general offences against the body.​
