New Criminal Laws

Union Home Minister Amit Shah will attend the 'Golden Year of Faith in Justice System' event at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi.

On Friday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah chaired a key meeting to assess the law and order situation in Delhi.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah stressed the use of technology in crime control and called for a system with the generation of alerts at predefined stages.

Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge criticized the Central government's implementation of three new criminal laws as a threat to parliamentary democracy.

A PIL challenges the Supreme Court over new criminal laws replacing colonial-era IPC, CrPC, and Evidence Act.

Replacing the CrPC of 1973, the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, mandates time-bound investigation, trial, and judgment within 30 days of argument completion.

Tensions escalated further with the mimicry of Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar by a Trinamool MP, becoming the latest flashpoint between the government and the Opposition.

The government defends the proposed criminal laws, asserting they are people-centric and designed to safeguard constitutional, human, and personal rights.
