Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation

Answer: (B) Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Samhita (BNSS)

भारतीय नागरिक सुरक्षा संहिता (BNSS) ने पुरानी दंड प्रक्रिया संहिता (CrPC) का स्थान लिया है।

The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Samhita (BNSS) has replaced the old Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). This law came into effect on July 1, 2024, and aims to modernize the criminal justice system. BNSS emphasizes protecting citizens' rights, ensuring speedy justice, and providing compensation to victims. It simplifies the process of filing complaints, investigation, and trial. Changes have also been made to rules regarding the detention and bail of suspects. This law is part of the new criminal justice system along with the Bharatiya Nyaya Samhita (BNS) and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA).
