Correct option is B
Under Section 100 of the IPC, the right of private defence can extend to causing death if there is a reasonable apprehension of death or grievous hurt. This right, however, is subject to the restrictions outlined in Section 99 of the IPC.
Information Booster:
Section 100 of the IPC allows for the right of private defence to cause death when there is a reasonable apprehension of death or grievous hurt. This ensures that individuals can defend themselves in extreme situations where their life or serious harm is threatened.
Additional Information:
·
(a) Grievous hurt: The right to cause grievous hurt falls under cases where the threat is not as severe as death but still substantial.
·
(c) Any harm other than death: This applies to situations where lesser harm can be justified under the right to private defence, but death cannot.
·
(d) Any harm other than death or grievous hurt: This option limits the right of private defence to cases involving only minor injuries, which is not the full extent of the right under Section 100.
