The National Conference on “Overview and Comparison on Old and New Criminal Laws in India Criminal Laws stands as a pivotal event, convening legal professionals, scholars, policymakers, and students from across India to critically examine and discuss the three recently enacted laws that promise to redefine the country’s criminal justice system. This conference represents a significant moment in Indian jurisprudence, as it gathers some of the most insightful minds in the legal field to engage with the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS), the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS), and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (BSA). These statutes are not merely revisions of existing laws but signal a comprehensive overhaul of India’s criminal legal framework, tailored to address the complexities of modern society. The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, for instance, modernizes the procedural aspects of criminal law, while the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, focuses on citizen protection and public order, and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, revises the rules of evidence to incorporate technological advancements.
