The correct answer is (b), Section 357A.
Section 357A of the Criminal Procedure Code provides for a victim compensation scheme. The scheme is designed to provide financial assistance to victims of crime who have suffered loss or injury as a result of the crime. The scheme is administered by the state government and is funded by the central government.
To be eligible for compensation under the scheme, the victim must have suffered loss or injury as a result of a crime that has been reported to the police. The victim must also be a citizen of India and must not have been convicted of any crime.
The amount of compensation that is payable to the victim is determined by the state government. The amount of compensation is based on the nature and extent of the victim’s loss or injury.
The victim compensation scheme is a valuable resource for victims of crime. The scheme can help to alleviate the financial burden that is often associated with being a victim of crime. The scheme can also help to provide closure for victims of crime.
