Objective of the Shodh Charcha Law Lecture Series—Ep 11: The objective of the Shodh Charcha Law Lecture Series-Ep11 was to provide an in-depth comparison between the procedures for arrest under the Indian Penal Code (Cr.P.C.) and the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) and to highlight the procedural variations and their implications on the arrest process.

 

On 10th August 2024, the eleventh episode of the Shodh Charcha Law Lecture Series was held, focussing on a comparative study of arrest procedures under the Code of Criminal Procedure (Cr.P.C.) and the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS). The session was organised by Maharishi Law School in coordination with IQAC. The session, titled “A Comparative Study between Cr.P.C. and Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita on Procedure of Arrest—Part 3,” took place from 02:30 PM to 03:30 PM. This session continued the series' exploration of procedural differences and similarities between these two significant legal frameworks. The session featured esteemed guest Sh. Gaurav Mahindra, Founder of Mahindra Law Academy, Prof. (Dr.) K.B. Asthana (Dean MLS), alongside faculty coordinator Saumya Shukla (Assistant Professor), Riya Koul (Assistant Professor), and student coordinator LB Kiran (LL.B. 2nd year). 

Sh. Mahindra began the session with a discussion on the practical implications of the procedural changes for law enforcement and legal professionals. Emphasis was placed on the need for law enforcement agencies to adapt to the new procedures outlined in the BNSS and for legal professionals to navigate these changes effectively. The session also highlighted the evolving protection of individual rights under the new framework.

Attendees, including legal professionals, scholars, and students, actively engaged in the discussion, raising questions about the practical impacts of the procedural reforms. The event underscored the importance of understanding these changes to ensure effective legal practice and justice. It encouraged us to delve deeper into the provisions of the BNSS and their implications for practice. Over all, the session was a great success.
