Explanation:

- Section 357 of the CrPC deals with when and how courts can order payment of compensation to victims from fines or other penal outcomes.

- Section 357-A brings in the Victim Compensation Scheme. It asks state governments to set up schemes so that victims or their dependents get help and support.

- Section 357-B () specifically says that any compensation given under Section 357-A is in addition to what's already payable under Section 326-A (acid attack offenses) or 376-D (gang rape) of the IPC.

- Section 357-C is about hospitals, and the duty to treat rape or acid attack victims without delay and at no cost.

So, the straightforward answer is: Option 3—Section 357-B is right. This section is there to make sure victims aren’t shortchanged—they get all forms of compensation due, not just one or the other.
