Question
Which of the following best reflects the new provision
related to summary trials under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023?Solution
Under Section 283(1) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, the scope of summary trials has been expanded: “The Magistrate of the First Class may try summarily any offence punishable with imprisonment not exceeding three years.” This is a key change from the earlier limit of 2 years under the CrPC (Section 260), intended to: • Expedite minor criminal cases, • Reduce case pendency, and • Ensure efficient use of judicial time without compromising justice. However, safeguards under Section 283(4) ensure that if the Magistrate feels a summary trial is inappropriate, the case can be converted to a regular trial.
