  • A.Section 354-A
  • B.Section 354-B

  • D.Section 354-D

Answer: D

Stalking is dealt with in Section 354-D.

Section 354D was inserted by the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013, after the Delhi gang rape case. It makes it an offence for a man to follow a woman or contact her repeatedly despite clear disinterest, or to monitor her use of the internet, email or other electronic communication.

The other sections added in 2013 deal with sexual harassment (354A), assault with intent to disrobe (354B) and voyeurism (354C).
