Correct Option: 2 - Section 259 Cr. P.C.

• Section 259 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Cr. P.C.) gives the court the power to convert summons-cases into warrant cases.
• This section allows the court to change the nature of the case from a summons-case (typically less serious offenses) to a warrant-case (for more serious offenses) if the situation warrants it.
• The provision ensures that cases are handled appropriately based on the nature of the offense and evidence available.
• This flexibility is important for ensuring fair and effective justice.
