The overhaul of antiquated criminal laws in India was imperative due to their colonial origins, serving oppression rather than justice. With society's evolution, many sections became obsolete. The new Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, replacing the Indian Penal Code, introduces modern provisions like penalties for deceitful sexual intercourse and organized crime. Notable amendments in the Bhartiya Nyaya Suraksha Sanhita include mandatory forensic investigations and electronic trials. The Bhartiya Sakshya Adhiniyam Act expands joint trials and accepts electronic evidence. These changes aim to enhance justice efficiency and adapt to contemporary challenges, reflecting a progressive stride towards a more equitable legal framework.

Before diving into detailed discussion about reservation let us know what reservation is... Reservation refers to the act of reserving a certain percentage of seats in schools, universities, and government jobs for people from discriminated and backward classes. These reserved seats are provided to individuals who are considered weaker sections of society and face discrimination based on caste, creed, race, or other criteria. However, I believe that reservations based on caste and religion should be phased out of society. I oppose any affirmative action programs in educational institutions or jobs that are solely based on caste. Instead, targeted support and resources should be provided to underprivileged children from all backgrounds (including upper castes) and religions, to create a more equitable environment. I vehemently oppose the reservation system for the following reasons:  1. Reservations can only benefit less than 1 per cent SCs or OBCs, while creating a...
