The three new criminal laws - the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam - came into force on July 1.
In a press release, the State government said that the laws were passed by Parliament without proper discussion, without considering the State’s views, and have been named in Sanskrit, which is against the provisions of the Constitution.
Protests and agitations are taking place against these three Acts all over the country, it added.
"Without hearing the view of the Members of Parliament, who reflect the people’s views, the Union Government has passed these new laws without discussion in haste during December, 2023 after suspending 146 Members of Parliament," the release stated.
