A Correct answer
Explanation

This matching question tests knowledge of important case law in criminal law: Bhaurao Shankar Lokhande (bigamy under IPC 494), Gul Mohammad (cruelty as a ground for divorce), Pawan Kumar (abetment to suicide), and Barendra Kumar Ghosh (joint liability under Section 34). Option A correctly matches each case with its legal contribution. These cases established significant principles - bigamy requires valid second marriage, cruelty can be mental or physical, abetment requires active instigation, and joint liability requires common intention and participation.
