A To Z Of Laws On Bails Under New Criminal Laws 2023

A to Z — Laws on Bails under the New Criminal Laws (2023) explains, in clear practitioner language, how bail practice has changed after India’s 2023 criminal-law reforms. Beginning with the statutory text of BNSS bail and bond sections, the book offers clause-by-clause commentary, a parallel column comparing the old CrPC tests and practical notes on transitional issues. Core chapters cover anticipatory bail, regular bail, conditional release, bonds and sureties, interim relief, surrender procedures, and remand vs. custody distinctions — each with legal tests, evidence strategy, suggested grounds, and model drafts. The manual emphasises operational detail: timelines for forensic mandates, custody-remand checklists, and drafting strategies to address new statutory aggravators or scheduling rules. A dedicated chapter addresses high-stakes areas — money-laundering predicates, terrorism-related bail restrictions, and public-order offences — with mapped authorities and tactical notes. Appendices contain 25+ ready petitions (advocate’s templates), bench-side checklists, flowcharts for bail decision trees, and a quick-reference index of BNSS/BN(S?) provisions and corresponding old-law references. Designed for busy advocates, judges, public defenders and advanced students, this A-Z guide converts the 2023 statutory reforms into courtroom-ready practice.
