Explanation:

- Section 119 IPC: This deals with a public servant who conceals a plan to commit an offence which is punishable with imprisonment. The punishment varies based on whether the offence is actually committed or not.

- Section 120 IPC: This is about concealing a design to commit an offence punishable with imprisonment by anyone (not just public servants). Again, the penalty depends on if the offence is carried out or not. This is the correct option.

- Section 121 IPC: That’s about waging war against the Government of India. Much more serious—nothing to do with just concealing plans.

- Section 122 IPC: This deals with collecting arms or men with the intention of waging war against the government.

So, the correct answer is Option 2—Section 120 of IPC.
