Section 121A of IPC : Section 121A: Conspiracy To Commit Offences Punishable By Section 121

Explanation using Example

Imagine a group of individuals in India gather and make a detailed plan to overthrow the State Government of Maharashtra by force. They discuss the acquisition of weapons and the mobilization of people to carry out their plan. Even though they have not yet committed any overt act towards this goal, their mere agreement and planning to use criminal force to intimidate or overthrow the government constitutes a conspiracy under Section 121A of the Indian Penal Code. If caught, they could be charged and potentially convicted for conspiring to commit an offence against the state, facing life imprisonment or up to ten years in prison, along with fines, regardless of whether they actually initiated any violent acts.
