PM Modi to dedicate implementation of criminal laws to nation in Chandigarh today
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will dedicate three transformative new criminal laws—Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam—to the nation in Chandigarh on Tuesday. These laws, which were implemented nationwide on July 1, 2024, aim to overhaul India's criminal justice system by replacing colonial-era laws and focusing on justice rather than punishment.
