Statement 1 is Inorrect: Zero FIR under BNSS Section 173 applies to cognizable offences, irrespective of where the offence was committed. The statement wrongly includes non-cognizable offence. BNSS Section 173(1) says information relating to the commission of a cognizable offence may be given irrespective of area.

Statement 2 is Correct: BNSS Section 173(3) allows the Officer-in-Charge, for certain cognizable offences punishable with 3 years or more but less than 7 years, to conduct a preliminary enquiry with prior permission from an officer not below the rank of Deputy Superintendent of Police.

Statement 3 is Incorrect: Electronic furnishing is not obligatory. Section 173(1) says information may be given orally or by electronic communication. If given electronically, it must be signed within three days.
