Tripura CM Manik Saha bats for better implementation of new criminal laws, hopes it will push up conviction rate

Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha Sunday described the three new criminal laws – Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA) – as victim-friendly. He expressed hope that the better implementation of these three laws would push up the conviction rate in the state. 'We have seen that these are friendly Acts. To implement criminal laws, the stakeholders are required to work in coordination and benefit the common people. I urge you all to cooperate with each other,' CM Saha said while addressing a workshop on 'New Criminal Laws and NDPS Act' held for legal practitioners, the police, and administrative officers at Pragya Bhavan in Agartala. 'I think this workshop is a step in this direction. Awareness is very important. People don't know about that. But every person should know these laws, and for this, I think, awareness campaigns should be done vigorously,' he added. 'These laws reflect a victim-friendly, technology-driven, and time-bound approach to justice delivery… The FIR (First Information Report) can be filed from anywhere, any part of the country, or across the state without being physically present in the police station and irrespective of the jurisdiction. The victims are entitled to have a free copy of their FIRs. Victims are to be informed about the status of their cases every 90 days…' said CM Saha.
