Answers (1)
Adultery involves engaging in consensual sexual relationships by a married individual with someone other than their spouse but in that case P files a complaint against Q but there is no evidence to prove adultery therefore, Q cannot be convicted of adultery under the Section 497 of the IPC. hence option b is correct option.
