Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023

Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 by Gaurav Mehta, part of the New Criminal Law Series, is a comprehensive and practice-oriented guide to India’s reformed criminal justice framework. Enacted to replace the Indian Penal Code, the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita introduces significant structural and substantive changes reflecting a reformative and justice-centered approach.

This book simplifies the transition from IPC to BNS by providing comparative tables showing corresponding provisions, making it easier for practitioners and students to understand legislative changes. The content is systematically organized with bifurcation of sections, tabular presentations, and quick-reference formats to enhance clarity and speed of revision. Special focus is given to newly emphasized offences such as organized crime, terrorist acts, mob lynching, and snatching, along with evolving areas like digital records and electronic evidence.

Designed for advocates, judicial officers, judiciary aspirants, law students, academicians, and legal researchers, this book serves as both a learning tool and a practical reference manual. It bridges the gap between legislative text and real-world application, making it indispensable for understanding and implementing India’s new criminal law regime.
