The Statesman Siliguri
|July 26, 2025
President Droupadi Murmu has sent back the death penalty Aparajita Bill to the West Bengal Governor C.V. Ananda Bose, raising some 'observations'.
Mr. Bose had sent the Bill to the Rashtrapati Bhavan for its consideration. Sources at the Kolkata Raj Bhavan said that the Centre has raised serious objections over the proposed changes to the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) that the legislation seeks.
"Raj Bhavan will send the Bill to the West Bengal Legislative Assembly and then it will be forwarded to the state secretariat Nabanna for its opinion," a source in the state assembly said.
