Explanation

Section 320 of Indian Penal Code defines grievous hurt. Loss of testis (permanent privation of sight of either eye is clause 4, loss of testis falls under permanent privation of a member), loss of eye, and loss of kidney (permanent privation of a member/joint) are all grievous hurt. Abrasion of the face is a simple hurt - it causes pain but not permanent disfigurement or loss of function.
