The Centre introduced three bills in the Lok Sabha on Friday to revamp the legal framework of India's criminal justice system. The three bills, Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2023, and Bharatiya Sakshya Bill 2023, seek to replace the Indian Penal Code (IPC), Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC), and Indian Evidence Act (IEA), respectively. The proposed changes include scrapping IPC Section 377.
