Explanation:

- Section 173 IPC deals with giving false information with intent to cause a public servant to use his lawful power to the injury of another person. It is not related to failing to attend an order.

- Section 174 IPC addresses non-attendance in obedience to an order from a public servant. This is directly relevant when someone fails to comply with an order under Section 160 of the CrPC.

- Section 186 IPC deals with obstructing a public servant in the discharge of public functions. It is not specifically about non-attendance.

- Option 4, "all of the above," is incorrect as the circumstances pertain specifically to Section 174.

Correct Answer: Option 2: Section 174, I.P.C.
