Provisions regarding "Punishment of offences committed within India" has been discussed in which chapter of The Indian Penal Code, 1860?
DSSSB - 2023,
Answer: C
Punishment of offences committed within India is the heading of Section 2 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, and Section 2 lies in Chapter I, the Introduction, which contains Sections 1 to 5 (title and extent, punishment within India, offences beyond India, and the extension and savings provisions).
Chapter II contains the general explanations, Chapter IV the general exceptions, and Chapter VI the offences against the State. So only Chapter I is the home of this provision.
