The proposed Code Modi criminal law overhaul in India aims to replace existing laws with three new sanhitas, but critics argue it is an exercise in futility without consulting stakeholders.

The amendments and new provisions in Code Modi appear to tilt in favor of law enforcement, with enhanced police powers and reduced procedural safeguards for citizens' liberty. #politics #democracy
