According to Section 319 of the Indian Penal Code, whoever causes bodily ache, disorder or disease to any individual is said to cause hurt. The expression 'physical pain' means that the pain must be physical instead of any mental pain. However, to be covered under this section, it isn't always important that any visible injury should be precipitated at the sufferer. All that the section contemplates is the inflicting of bodily pain. The diploma or severity of the ache or pain isn't a fabric element to decide whether Section 319 will apply or not. The duration of ache or pain is immaterial.
Section 321 defines 'voluntarily causing hurt' by stating that whoever does any act with the intention of thereby causing hurt to any person, or with the knowledge that he is likely thereby to cause hurt to any person, and does thereby cause hurt to any person, is said voluntarily to cause hurt.

Emasculation, permanent privation of the sight of either eye, permanent privation of the hearing of either ear, privation of any member or joint, destruction or permanent impairing of the powers of any member or joint, permanent disfiguration of the head or face, fracture or dislocation of a bone or tooth, any hurt which endangers life or which causes the sufferer to be during the space of twenty days in severe bodily pain, or unable to follow his ordinary pursuits are some kinds of hurt which can be designated as grievous as per Section 320.
Section 322 of the IPC characterises 'deliberately causing grievous hurt' as whoever voluntarily causes hurt, if the hurt which he intends to cause or knows himself to be likely to cause is grievous hurt, and if the hurt which he causes is grievous hurt, is said "voluntarily to cause grievous hurt'. Explanation of the said section states that an individual is not said voluntarily to cause grievous hurt except when he causes both grievous hurt and intends or knows himself to be likely to cause grievous hurt. He is said intentionally to cause offensive hurt, if proposing or realising that himself generally will probably cause grievous hurt of one kind, he actually causes grievous hurt of another sort.

Q. Hari and Shree were married to each other.

Please choose the option that most accurately and comprehensively answers the question.The offences of hurt and assault might sound similar, but there are some basic differences between them. While enacting these provisions, the authors of IPC deliberately kept these offences separate. This is because bodily hurt can take place even by acts which are not assaults. For example, a person may dig a hole and conceal it to make somebody fall and get hurt, but this is not an assault. According to Section 319, a person causes hurt if he causes bodily pain, disease or infirmity to somebody. In other words, the victim must suffer some physical harm or pain due to the actions of the offender.The main requirements of hurt are bodily pain, disease or infirmity. There are many ways in which this offence can take place. For example, a person may hit somebody or even poison him. If a person hits somebody without intention to cause his death, the offence of hurt will apply and not homicide. In this case, the act should be such that it is not likely to cause the victims death.When a person does an act with the intention of causing hurt to somebody or with the knowledge that he is likely to cause hurt, he is guilty of causing hurt voluntarily. When a person voluntarily causes hurt to somebody, the court can punish him with imprisonment up to 1 year. The court can also levy a fine of maximum Rs. 1,000 in addition to the imprisonment.Grievous hurt under Section 320 is basically an aggravated form of simple hurt under Section 319. The following eight kinds of hurt only can be grievous hurt: 1) Causing hurt by emasculation; 2) Permanent privation of ones eyesight; 3) Permanent privation of ones hearing; 4) Privation of ones members or joints; 5) Destruction or permanent impairing of the powers of ones members or joints; 6) Permanent disfiguration of ones head or face; 7) Fracturing or dislocating ones bones or teeth; 8) Causing any hurt which endangers ones life or causes him to suffer severe bodily pain for 20 days or makes him unable to follow his ordinary pursuits. Whenever hurt amounts to any of these eight kinds of injuries, it becomes grievous hurt. The prosecution or victim must be able to prove the existence of these injuries. If an offender intentionally and voluntarily causes grievous hurt, Section 325 punishes him with imprisonment up to 7 years. The punishment may also include a fine.Q.Mr X suffers from coronavirus. He has an arch-enemy Mr Y. He decides to go to his place and transmit the coronavirus to him. After this, Mr Y is also infected with coronavirus. Decide Mr Xs liability.

To constitute the offence of abetment, it is not necessary that the act abetted should be committed, or that the effect requisite to constitute the offence should be caused.Whoever, either prior to or at the time of the commission of an act, does anything in order to facilitate the commission of that act, and thereby facilitates the commission thereof, is said to aid the doing of that act.Abetment is completely a separate and distinct offence from conspiracy. Most of the time, abetment is confused with conspiracy. However, abetment involves a mental process of instigating a person or the act of intentionally aiding that person in doing of a thing. Whereas, in the cases of conspiracy, it would also involve the mental process entering into the doing of an act. The act of abetment could take place by instigation, conspiracy or intentional aid. The offence for the abetment of which a person is charged with can only be linked with the proven offence.The term instigate here denotes incitement or urging to do some drastic or inadvisable action. In committing abetment, mens rea is a necessary ingredient. When a person provokes another to do an act prohibited by law, he is said to commit the offence of abetment by instigation.A person is said to abet the commission of an offence by conspiracy if he enters into an agreement with one or more persons to do an illegal act.A person is said to abet the commission of an offence if he intentionally provides assistance or gives aid by doing or omitting an act. Mere intention to provide assistance is not sufficient in these cases. To hold a person guilty and liable for abetment, there must be some active conduct on the part of the abettor and the act must be accomplished in furtherance of that.It is not necessary that the person abetted should be capable by law of committing an offence, or that he should have the same guilty intention or knowledge as that of the abettor, or any guilty intention or knowledge. A person abets an offence within the meaning of this Code who, in India, abets the commission of any act without and beyond India which would constitute an offence if committed in India.Q. Nishas house was robbed by a group of robbers. The group of robbers included Prakash. The next day, Ramu, servant of Nisha, gave food and clothes to Prakash, an alleged offender, thinking him to be a beggar. Will Ramu be convicted for abetment for providing food and clothes to Prakash, an accused?
