Q: Answer-Which of the following is true under the BNS regarding the offence of theft?

The provision for theft in BNS defines it as an act where a person dishonestly moves movable property out of someone elses possession without consent, with the intention to take it for themselves. It does not require force or violencethat would qualify as robbery or dacoity. Theft can occur in private or public settings and applies to any movable property, not just government-owned items. It can also apply even between spouses, depending on possession and ownership context.
