Discussion
Unnatural offences have been discussed in which section of the Indian Penal Code, 1860?
Answer: A
Unnatural offences are dealt with in Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, which punished voluntary carnal intercourse against the order of nature. The Supreme Court in Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India (2018) read it down so that it no longer applies to consensual acts between adults.
Section 390 defines robbery, Section 225 deals with resistance or obstruction to the lawful apprehension of another person, and Section 505 deals with statements conducing to public mischief. None of them is the unnatural offences provision.
