I take it that you are referring to India's primary criminal code, the Indian Penal Code (IPC). It was passed in 1860 and took effect on January 1, 1862. The International Criminal Court (IPC) provides definitions and punishments for various offenses, such as theft, fraud, assault, and murder. If you're looking for information about the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita Act (BNSS), 2023, which is the most recent set of criminal laws in India, the year 2023, the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSS); In 2023, the Penal Code of 1860, the Evidence Act of 1872, and the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1973 were replaced by the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSSS), 20231. The colonial criminal laws have been superseded by these new laws, which include new provisions for crimes against women and children, murder, and others.
