Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (Criminal Procedure): A commentary by J.K. Verma is a treatise on the newly enacted Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS), which has repealed and replaced the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (CrPC).
The BNSS, replacing the CrPC, now comprises 531 sections. Of these, 160 sections of the CrPC have been changed, amended, or substituted. Additionally, 9 new sections have been added, and 9 sections have been repealed.
Notable features of the new law include the introduction of e-FIRs, the compulsory recording of the victim’s statement in cases of sexual violence, and the video recording of statements in cases of sexual harassment. The law also mandates regularly furnishing the status of complaints to the complainant, shows enhanced concern for victims, provides for deemed sanction for prosecution, rules out total pardoning, and promotes forensic science to optimise the rate of conviction.
The BNSS broadens the scope of police power in property seizure. While the CrPC initially allowed the seizure of movable properties suspected to be stolen or found under suspicious circumstances, Section 85 of the BNSS extends this authority to include immovable properties as well.
The prefatory notes by Manisha Karia, Kumar Askand Pandey, and Sanjay Vashishtha, who are prominent criminal law academicians and practitioners, will be quite useful and informative for readers.
The book also includes a comparative table showing the correspondence between the provisions of the old law and those of the new law.
Overall, this book will be immensely useful to legal practitioners, students, law school faculty members, and anyone interested in understanding this new law on criminal procedure.
Key Features:
Date of Enforcement Notification
Key highlights of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023
Comparative Tables of sections old versus new and new versus old
Table of new provisions introduced in new Act
Table of provisions of CrPC, 1973 omitted in new Act
Guidelines issued by Supreme Court for grant of bail in Satender Kumar Antil v. CBI
Judgment in Mohd. Asfak Alam v. State of Jharkhand
Corresponding law under each section of new Act
Articles and comments of legal experts
