|Mint Mumbai
Home minister Amit Shah on Friday introduced three bills in the Lok Sabha to replace colonialera laws, asserting that the proposed laws will transform the criminal justice system and bring the spirit to protect the rights of Indian citizens to the centre stage.
-
Shah introduced the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) Bill, 2023; Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) Bill, 2023; and Bharatiya Sakshya (BS) Bill, 2023 that will replace the Indian Penal Code, 1860, Criminal Procedure Act, 1898, and the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 respectively, stating the changes were done to provide speedy justice and create a legal system that meets contemporary needs and aspirations of the people.
The BNS bill has provisions that seek to repeal sedition, and award maximum capital punishment for crimes such as mob lynching and rape of minors, the home minister said. The bill also has provisions for first-time community service as one of the punishments for petty offences.
