JAIPUR: Union Home Minister Amit Shah inaugurated a state-level exhibition on the three new criminal laws on Monday in Rajasthan's Jaipur. He also laid the foundation stone and inaugurated 1, 100 development projects across sectors worth approximately Rs 9, 600 crore.

The exhibition at JECC marks the first anniversary of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, which came into effect on July 1, 2024.

HM Shah emphasised the transformation these laws are bringing to India's criminal justice system. "These laws will ensure that FIRs filed after 2027 are resolved in the Supreme Court within three years. This is a shift from punishment-based to justice-based policing, " he said.
