University Grants Commission (UGC) has written to Higher Education Institutions regarding publicizing New Criminal Laws 2023.
"As you are aware, the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) replaces the Indian Penal Code; the Bharatiya Sakshya (BS) replaces the Indian Evidence Act; and the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) replace the Code of Criminal Procedure. The BNS is a transformative judicial reform based on victim centric approach, providing witness protection and aims at fast and speedy delivery of justice with the use of technology etc. In this regard, flyers are being shared for use by HEIs for creating a sensitization amongst faculty and students about the BNS and its implications for ensuring timely justice," reads the UGC notification.
The Higher Education Institutions are requested to publicize the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023 around the themes contained in the fylers attached and by carrying out campaigns by way of displays through standees, distributing flyers and organizing seminars and talks by lawyers, judges both serving and retired and their respective faculties in their institutions. Further, the HEIS are also requested to share details of activity undertaken to the Ministry of Education at email syed.rizwi@gov.in for its onward transmission to the Ministry of Home Affairs, added the Commission.
