About this area of law

Criminal law in India was overhauled in 2023 — the Indian Penal Code, CrPC, and Evidence Act were replaced by the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, BNSS, and BSA respectively. Understanding your rights from the moment of arrest — bail eligibility, FIR registration, anticipatory bail, and trial procedure — is critical. Our guides explain the new criminal law framework in plain language so you know exactly what to do and when.
