There Has To Be Some Limit To Frivolity': Delhi High Court Raps Litigant For Filing PIL Calling BNS A 'Criminal Act' Of Government

The Delhi High Court has rejected a batch of petitions that challenged the constitutional validity of various provisions of the newly enacted Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), India's revamped criminal code. In its ruling, the court firmly upheld the legislative authority of the Parliament to undertake comprehensive reforms of the nation's penal laws. This judgment effectively clears potential judicial hurdles that could have impeded the implementation of the new criminal justice system, paving the way for its enforcement.
