Correct option is D
A warrant case, under the Cr.P.C., refers to a case relating to an offence punishable with death, imprisonment for life, or imprisonment exceeding two years. These are serious offences, and the procedure for trials in warrant cases is more detailed and elaborate compared to summons cases, which deal with lesser offences.
Information Booster: Warrant cases require a more rigorous procedure, including the right of the accused to be provided with the statements of witnesses, and the charge is framed before the trial begins. These cases are of a serious nature, involving severe punishments.

(c) Punishable with imprisonment not exceeding two years: This describes a summons case, not a warrant case.
