Thereafter, the Court cancelled its previous decision and changed it to one-year imprisonment. This incident happened in 1988.

There is a provision for a maximum of one-year imprisonment for a crime under IPC section 323; when a person intentionally (omitting the provisions prescribed under Section 334) voluntarily injures another person. The accused will be sentenced to one-year imprisonment or a penalty of Rs. 1,000 or both.
