R.V. Kelkar's Lectures on Criminal Procedure by Renjith Thomas & Devi Jagani
Book Overview
This text takes a lecture-based, topic-wise approach rather than traditional chapters, making the study of criminal procedure systematic and easy to follow. Each lecture focuses on a core procedural area — from arrest and bail to trial, judgment, appeals, and special proceedings — arranged logically to enhance learning outcomes.
Key highlights of the book include:
-
Aligned with BNSS 2023: Fully updated to reflect the latest procedural law reforms under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, replacing previous statutory frameworks.
