The \u2018Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita\u2019, \u2018Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita\u2019, and \u2018Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam\u2019 were implemented nationwide to replace colonial-era laws, making the legal system more transparent and efficient.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The three new criminal laws have completely transformed our criminal justice system, making it victim-centric and more justice-oriented than punitive.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The new criminal laws reflect India\u2019s collective vision of justice. The prime objective of the new Laws is to protect and empower the women and weaker sections of the society. Special care has been taken to make the weaker sections, women and children priority of the justice system,\u201d the Lieutenant Governor said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Lieutenant Governor directed the Jammu Kashmir Police to continue organizing public awareness camps on new criminal laws, in collaboration with the Information Department, Education Department and Legal Services Authority.
