The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita
(BNSS) 2023, which replaced the Criminal Procedure Code 1973, represents a
significant milestone in India's criminal justice reform. One of the most
noteworthy aspects of this new legislation is how Parliament has systematically
incorporated key directions and principles established by the Supreme Court,
particularly those outlined in the landmark case of Satender Kumar Antil v. Central Bureau of Investigation (2022). This integration demonstrates a remarkable convergence between
judicial wisdom and legislative intent, creating a more balanced and
rights-oriented criminal procedure framework.
