State-Level Review Meeting on New Criminal Laws Held at Gangtok

A state-level review meeting on the implementation of the newly enacted criminal laws—the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA)—was held today at Samman Bhawan. These laws, which came into effect in July last year, mark a significant shift in India’s criminal justice framework.

The meeting also witnessed the official launch of the “Compendium of Notifications, Rules, and SOPs on New Criminal Laws,” a comprehensive reference guide aimed at aiding smooth and effective enforcement.

Chief Minister addressed the gathering, underscoring the importance of these legal reforms and their long-term relevance in enhancing public safety, security, and legal clarity. He also shared constructive suggestions to streamline implementation and minimize transitional challenges for law enforcement agencies and citizens alike.

The Chief Minister extended his congratulations to the officials involved in the meticulous compilation of the compendium, commending their expertise and commitment to strengthening the legal system.
