This was such an insightful and informative session
I was totally absorbed in the conversation 👍
It definitely helps to understand and form an opinion on the new criminal laws

[sauravkumar]

Must watch interview to get clarity over the pros and cons of new criminal laws. Thank u Anup sir!

[MURTHUJAPATTAN]

There is no law which curses their own citizens badly and provisions of relief to have fundamental rights for all citizens. Law is the reflection of life with satety, security and liberty and justice blessed by our constitution.

[kswamyswamy]

What is there except names that is English in old law to change

[PinakiGuptaAppu]

I expected the Honourable SC would quash these new laws. Rest assured, India will never move forward if such laws govern the land.

[shaileshjoshi]

It'll get developed gradually. During GST same apprehension was there.

[pratibhajoshidalal]

I agree with ngo cannot file mercy petition when convict show no remorse.

[sayasargam]

Matrimonial cases, common man, in absentia trials

[veerakumar]

If Macaulay is so lucid why so much of controversy over sedition law enacted by British

[veerakumar]

Anup proposes there should not be any trial in absentia and wants people to flee and escape punishment

[ravindertalwar]

British Criminal laws introduced in india in 1861 are totally inhuman laws And totally against to human rights.
Britishers introduced those laws to harass indians who raise their mouths for freedom of voice .today introduced criminal laws too bad and People have to be known in their own regional languages.about these new Criminal laws

[kaushalendraraomannava]

Anupji, the only sensible point you have made is with respect to capacity for enforcement.

But you have failed to provide any other significant reason why the new laws are not good.

All the points you have made are trivial.

As regards the amendment route, you are totally wrong. Just as in corporate restructuring, rolling out of projects lije ERP, drastic changes can be brought about only by a robust new philosophy.

So please don't go about bad mouthing the long over due changes.
