'Tareekh pe tareekh’ to justice within 3 yrs: HM hails BNS, overhaul of criminal laws

Union Home Minister Amit Shah hailed the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA) as laws that will ensure justice within three years, from the filing of an FIR to the Supreme Court. The new criminal laws, which came into effect on July 1, 2024, incorporate science and technology into forensic investigations and include provisions concerning women's safety, mob lynching, missing children, and terrorism.

Shah also announced the establishment of a separate Ministry of Cooperation to benefit the cooperative sector, with a Rs 255-crore milk processing plant set to be constructed in Ujjain.
