Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said the three proposed criminal laws are people-centric, have the flavour of Indian soil and their main purpose is to protect the constitutional, human and personal rights of citizens.
Addressing the two-day International Lawyers’ Conference organised by the Bar Council of India here, Shah also said the approach of the three bills is also to provide justice rather than mete out punishment.
“Purpose of making laws is to establish an efficient system, and not to establish the supremacy of those who make the law,” Shah said at the event also attended by Supreme Court judges Justice Sanjeev Khanna, Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Justice PS Narasimha among others.
