On Monday, G Kishan Reddy, Minister of State (MoS) for Home Affairs in his announcement hinted that the government is contemplating changes in the Indian Penal Code, 1860, and Codes of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) the laws continuing from the British era.

Speaking in the Conference on Women Safety – “Let’s Talk – Strategies & Way Forward to Prevent Crime Against Women” organized by Anandi Empower Foundation, the Union Minister said that the Centre has written to Chief Justices, senior Advocates, police officers, NGOs, and the state governments.

“We all should come forward and work in the direction to ensure that there is no gender injustice. We have taken up many tasks on behalf of the Government of India. Now we shall also change IPC and CrPC which are of the British era. From time to time we have been amending the sections of these two but looking at the present scenario of the country, the government has decided to completely change the IPC and CrPC and for the same, we have written to Chief Justices, senior Advocates, police officers, NGOs, state governments. A committee has also been constituted for this. I appeal to all of you give suggestions regarding what changes should be made in the IPC and CrPC,” he said.

Last year, Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said that the Narendra Modi government had already abolished 1,458 old and archaic acts. Prasad said that this is done to ensure minimum legislation and maximum governance, adding that repealing old laws is an ongoing process.

The Repealing and Amending Bill, 2019, was passed on August 2 by the Rajya Sabha via a voice vote. It was passed by the Lok Sabha on July 29th. Moving the bill to the Upper House, Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said that after the BJP-led government came to power, it decided to get rid of obsolete and absolute laws. The committee listed 1824 old laws.

Additional legal Information from Lexpeeps to the viewers:

Many people from non-legal background must be wondering how the Acts came into force before the Constitution of India came are valid and continuing in India?

This is because Article 13(1) of The Constitution allows continuing the laws which came into force before The Constitution of India came into force and Article 372 of The Constitution gives it the validity.

The three judge bench Justices L. Nageswara Rao, Hemant Gupta, and Ajay Rastogi on October 29^th, 2020 conducted the hearing for approval of the transfer petitions (petitions seeking transfer of the case from one court to another). The transfer writ petition was filed before the Supreme court under Article 139 (A) read with the A 142 of the constitution of India by the insolvency and bankruptcy board of India. Some provisions were related to personal guarantors to corporate debtors by the ministry of corporate affairs, Government of India under section 1(3) of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 dated back to 15^th of October 2019.

Earlier, the same notification was challenged along with the Insolvency and Bankruptcy code,2019 (application to adjudicating authority for insolvency resolution process of personal guarantors to corporate debtors). The entitled sections were claimed to be applying as personal guarantors and hence, proved unconstitutional after which the petition was scheduled to be finally heard on 10^th October 2020.

Apart from this, it was believed by the petitioner that high courts could possibly give diverge opinions and therefore, a request for the transfer of writ petition was put forth.

The transfer of the writ petition would enable an early resolution of the dispute and focusing on the dispute pertaining to the validity of the notification dated 15^th October, 2019 on which the Solicitor General supported the submissions of the Additional Solicitor General.

The transfer of the writ petitions was objected by the counsel- for respondents on the following grounds that hearing for the same has been enlisted on 10^th October 2020 and Delhi High Court should be permitted to complete the hearing. On the following grounds that the court would benefit the opinion on the subject matter of the dispute, the Union Of India should have maintained these as it would have made the early disposal of the hearing.

Concluding the submissions of both the parties, the pending writ petitions could be transferred to the Supreme court of India. The interpretations and provisions of the code which needs judicial determination, taken up by Supreme Court would avoid any confusion and help in settling the law. The registries of High Court are directed to transmit the records of Writ petitions forthwith.

Hence, it was concluded that transfer petitions should be allowed and writ petitions involving the challenge to the aforesaid notification and the provisions which relate to personal guarantors to corporate debtors shall not be entertained.

The high court of Tripura in its recent judgement of Kali Sankar Baidya vs. The State of Tripura under coram of Chief Justice Akil Kureshi directed the government to process the medical reimbursement bills and release the same to the extent as per the Government policy the same are payable, within eight weeks and it cannot be cancelled if prior referral order from medical board was not taken.

The petitioner, having faced 20 kg weight loss and drastic depletion of HB he was shifted to GBP Hospital on 11^th November 2019 and was advised for colonoscopy due to possible charges of colon cancer. Further, he was operated on 9^th December 2014 along with 12 cycles of chemotherapy were carried between 28^th January 2015 to 21^st July 2015 at TATA Memorial hospital Mumbai.

Though the respondents argued that such bill cannot be passed because prior referral order was not obtained, and he had to present himself before the medical board to prove urgent grounds for travelling and getting treatment outside the state but considerable time was lost petitioner reporting early symptoms of possible serious ailment and actual detection of suffering from Cancer. The application seeking medical reimbursement for Rs.3,72,031 was rejected on the grounds mentioned earlier.                                                     

Hustling between his health and waiting for the Medical board to pass referral order, he went on to seeking treatment without wasting much time in waiting for the referral order.

Self-preservation of one’s life is necessary concomitant of the right to life enshrined in Article 21 of the Constitution of India, fundamental in nature, sacred, precious and inviolable and therefore right to self-preservation and importance & validity of the duty has a species in the right of self-defence in criminal law. The wise always undertake the protective measures for the body. Even the persons suffering from cancer and other diseases do not wish to get rid of the body. Hence, Medical reimbursement claims cannot be rejected merely because prior referral order was not obtained before taking treatment outside state, High Court of Tripura ruled out.
