Explanation:

- Option 1: Instigating a person to commit an offence.

- This refers to provoking or encouraging someone to commit a crime. It is considered abetment under the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

- Option 2: Engaging in a conspiracy to commit an offence.

- This involves planning with others to commit a crime. Conspiracy is treated as abetment under the IPC.

- Option 3: Intentionally aiding a person to commit an offence.

- Providing help or assistance in the commission of a crime, also considered abetment.
