If there is a "simple injury" of a bike rider resulting from a minor collision (unintentional) with a car, will it qualify for rash and negligent driving as per BNS 125(a)?

BNS Section 125 addresses acts done rashly or negligently that endanger human life or personal safety. The severity of the punishment increases with the level of harm caused, ranging from up to three months of imprisonment or a fine for endangerment, to up to three years of imprisonment or a fine for grievous harm.
