Whoever uses Government stamp fraudulently or with intent to cause loss to government he has committed offence under section ______ P.P.C.

A. 242, P.P.C.
B. 262, P.P.C.
C. 272, P.P.C.
D. None of These
Correct Answer: B. 262, P.P.C.

The Pakistan Penal Code (P.P.C.) contains specific provisions to protect government property and revenue, including stamps. Fraudulent use of government stamps is a serious offense designed to cause financial loss to the state, and the law clearly defines which section covers such acts.

  • Option B is correct because Section 262 of the P.P.C. specifically deals with the offense of using a genuine Government stamp fraudulently or with intent to cause loss to the Government.
  • Option A is false as Section 242 P.P.C. pertains to possession of counterfeit coin by a person who knew it to be counterfeit when he became possessed thereof.
  • Option C is false as Section 272 P.P.C. deals with adulteration of food or drink intended for sale.
  • Option D is false as Option B correctly identifies the relevant section.
