India is witnessing sweeping changes in its criminal justice landscape with the implementation of three new criminal laws. These laws, which came into effect on Monday, aim to reform the Indian judicial system significantly.
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has strongly criticized the manner in which these laws were passed, alleging they were 'forcibly' pushed through after the suspension of 146 Members of Parliament. Kharge, along with the INDIA bloc, has vowed to resist this 'bulldozer justice' and protect parliamentary democracy.
The laws have sparked a significant debate across the political spectrum, with various MPs and political leaders pitching in their views. The country now awaits to see the real impact these laws will have on the justice system and whether the opposition's concerns hold substantial ground.
