Hello,

Section 143 of the Indian Penal Code states the punishment for being a member of an unlawful assembly.

Being a member of the unlawful assembly is punishable with:

  1. Imprisonment of either descripttion for a term extended upto six months.
  2. Fine
  3. Both 

Whoever is found to be guilty of being a member of the unlawful assembly is bound to be punished under section 143 of the Indian Penal Code.

Whereas,

Section 145

Whoever joins or continues in an unlawful assembly, knowing that such unlawful assembly has been commanded in the manner prescribed by law to disperse, shall be punished with imprisonment of either descripttion for a term which may extent to two years, or with fine, or with both.

Hence, 

Section 143 provides for punishment for unlawful assembly for the members. Sections 144 and 145 are aggravated form of unlawful assembly

Thank you
