Course Introduction

In 2020, the Government of India embarked on an ambitious exercise to reform the Criminal Justice System. On 11th August 2023, three path-breaking bills—Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA), 2023—were introduced in Parliament to replace the Indian Penal Code (IPC), 1860, Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), 1973, and Indian Evidence Act (IEA), 1872 respectively. These laws came into force on 1st July 2024.

The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) marks a major reform in India’s procedural criminal law. It aims to modernise and streamline processes, enhance transparency, improve policing efficiency, and strengthen citizen rights.
This course provides a comprehensive and structured understanding of BNSS, its provisions, legislative evolution, comparative changes, and relevance within India’s criminal justice system.
