Explanation

Under Section 375 of the Indian Penal Code, sexual intercourse with a woman without her consent, or with consent obtained by fraud or deceit, constitutes rape. Fraudulent consent vitiates the consent element, making the act rape regardless of whether force was used. The other options (assault, molestation, outraging modesty) are lesser offenses that do not fully capture the gravity of non-consensual sexual intercourse.
