[amp_mcq option1=”One month” option2=”Three month” option3=”Six month” option4=”One year ” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is (a) One month.<\/p>\n

The period of limitation for filing a complaint for an offence punishable with fine only is one month. This is provided in Section 468 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.<\/p>\n

Section 468 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 states that “No Court shall take cognizance of an offence punishable with fine only, after the expiry of one month from the date on which the offence is committed.”<\/p>\n

This means that if an offence is punishable with fine only, the complainant has to file a complaint within one month of the date on which the offence is committed. If the complaint is not filed within one month, the court will not take cognizance of the offence.<\/p>\n

The reason for this is that offences punishable with fine only are considered to be less serious than offences punishable with imprisonment. Therefore, the law allows the complainant more time to file a complaint for an offence punishable with fine only.<\/p>\n

The other options are incorrect because they are not the period of limitation prescribed for filing a complaint for an offence punishable with fine only.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
