Solution

The correct option is C Mr. Krishna cannot exercise the right of self-defence
C is the correct option.
Mr. Krishna cannot exercise his right of self defence as his life is not in imminent threat. Since Mr. Prashanth has only threatned Mr. Krishna that he will kill him. This has not put Mr. Krishna's life into imminent threat as is required for him to exercise his right of self defence.
