Concise Commentary on The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 By Namit Saxena Edition 2024

Concise Commentary on The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 is positioned between a Bare Act and Commentary. The objective of this work is to offer readers a text richer than a Bare Act but not as voluminous as a commentary. While the provisions of the Sanhita retain the core principles of its illustrious predecessor, the various structural changes and re-numbering of provisions require everybody to re-orient and re-equip themselves with the altered landscape of the law of criminal Procedure. This Concise Commentary earnestly attempts to facilitate the transition.

The author has tried to be brief and lucid while explaining the new provisions introduced by the Sanhita and highlighting the changes introduced in the provisions of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
