Pocket book in hand, cops slog to memorise new laws

As Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA), 2023, to replace the Indian Penal Code, 1860, the Criminal Procedure Code, 1973, and the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, are set to be rolled out from July 1. That small book is the training module, where sections of BNS sections are listed on the right side, and their corresponding IPC sections are on the left.

The police personnel could be seen memorising them.

In January this year, a 14member committee was constituted to study the laws and prepare the study material for its personnel. The committee was led by Special Commissioner of Police Chhaya Sharma and comprised DCP Joy Tirkey, Additional DCP Uma Shankar and other officers.

It's a must for shuttlers to constantly update themselves based on who's in front of them. \"The competition is high so it is not going to be easy (Olympics). This is my third Olympics but every time the game keeps changing and some of them are new players while some of them will be taking part for the second time. One has to be physically and mentally much more stronger/ smarter. These are the things that we need to keep in mind,\" the 28-year-old, who is currently training in Saarbrucken (Germany), said.
