Explanation:

Let’s break it down:

- Section 261 Cr.P.C. – This section lets certain Magistrates, including a Magistrate of the second class (if specially empowered), try offences in a summary way, which means quicker and simpler procedures.

This is the correct answer.

- Section 265 Cr.P.C. – This one talks about the procedure for summary trials, but doesn't focus on which Magistrates can try them. It’s more about how summary trials actually work.

- Section 268 Cr.P.C. – This section is about keeping certain prisoners in jail and relates to how they are produced for trials, not about summary trials at all.

- Section 269 Cr.P.C. – This deals with the process when a person has to be brought to court from prison, and permission is required. Again, not about summary trials by Magistrates of the second class.
