Explanation:

- Let’s look at what each option means:

- Option 1: Simple hurt

- Means causing bodily pain, disease, or infirmity but not amounting to serious injury.

- Option 2: Grievous hurt

- As per Indian Penal Code Section 320, grievous hurt includes eight specific types of injuries (like emasculation, permanent loss of sight, etc.), one of which is "the destruction or permanent impairment of the powers of any member or joint," and the loss of hair does NOT generally fall under grievous hurt, unless there is permanent disfigurement.

- Option 3: Simple hurt by rash and negligent act

- This would apply if the act was not intentional but done negligently. Here, A acted intentionally.

- Option 4: None

- This would apply if there was no offence committed, which is not the case.

- Pulling someone’s hair and removing some (but not causing permanent disfigurement) counts as simple hurt, not grievous hurt.

- Under IPC, pulling out someone’s hair and causing pain is simple hurt.

Correct Answer: Option 1 - Simple hurt
