B Applies only if amount small Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

C Does not apply Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

D Applies only if giver turns approver Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

E Applies only with police permission Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Section 24 of the PC Act grants protection only to a bribe-giver who was compelled to give a bribe due to coercion or extortion and who reports the matter within the prescribed time. A person who voluntarily gives a bribe, even for a lawful act, is not entitled to any immunity. Therefore, protection does not apply in such cases.
