REPLACEMENT OF THE THREE CRIMINAL LAWS OF THE BRITISH ERA BY BHARTIYA LAWS – A MOCKERY ACT OF PRESENT GOVERNMENT

Abstract

Passing of new laws raised several quarries in the mind of authors, if we go through them it found that these Laws are broadly based on the same principles as the existing codes. Phraseology is almost same in both laws, however, some provisions which are introduced in new one are poorly worded, while others have been confusingly in terms of explanations which includes without any assessment of the need for such inclusion. This article is neither a comprehensive assessment of the three Laws nor a complete analysis of the provisions; it is an attempt to raise some issue on the act of present government. Does to change the name may get change the history of British Era, which is an established fact and have to be accepted. We cannot put the pioneer work and contribution in a side line; they give us secular and uniform laws which bind together peoples as well as land. The new name (title) of laws itself making a mockery; the term used in title ‘nayay’ raise the question does a book itself provide ‘nayay to a person’? Or to penalize ‘the act of a person’. Does a book give ‘suraksha to nagrik’? Or it is ‘procedural law’ as a part of criminal laws, if answer is in affirmative sense then a procedural law deals with procedure or provides ‘suraksha to a common person’. And also forget, that, the present Cr.P.C. is not of a British Era, it was replaced in year 1973 from 1898. Now came to Evidence Law we all called it sakshya adhiniyam in hindi. This clearly shows the ill mentality of present government. Currently, till date there are lakhs number of cases pending in courts of India which will be handle and settle through old laws & procedure and it will take more than a decade to settle, as the functioning of our judicial courts in the matters, is more time taking. In such situation, dealing with both laws creates the situation of confusion in criminal justice system. These laws are nothing but a reshuffling of old laws section only. As just like old things in new package, to be feel good that we do something and praise own self in the lack of praises
