MRS. VEEDA MENEZES vs YUSUF KHAN AND ANR.

The Supreme Court held that Section 95 of the Indian Penal Code applies to acts causing harm that are trivial, regardless of whether the harm was accidental or deliberate. The Court clarified that 'harm' includes physical injury, and the determination of whether an offence is trivial depends on factors such as the nature of the injury and the intention behind the act. The High Court's ruling that the act fell within the General Exception was upheld, leading to the dismissal of the appeal.
