Use of violence by a member of an assembly of five or more persons in furtherance of common object will constitute

  • A.affray
  • B.assault
  • C.rioting
  • D.unlawful assembly

Answer: C

It constitutes rioting.

Section 146 IPC: whenever force or violence is used by an unlawful assembly, or by any member of it, in prosecution of the common object of that assembly, every member is guilty of rioting.

An unlawful assembly (Section 141) is the gathering of five or more with a common unlawful object; it becomes rioting once violence is used. Affray (Section 159) is two or more persons fighting in a public place and disturbing the peace, and assault (Section 351) is a gesture or preparation causing apprehension of force.
