Old is Not Always Gold – A Case Study on Repealing Statutes

Summary

India is confronting the challenge of an overly complex and outdated legal system, burdened by a vast number of obsolete and poorly structured laws. The approach involves systematic identification and repeal of irrelevant statutes, amendment of specific sections, and harmonization of overlapping legislation, alongside efforts to improve the overall legislative process. This initiative is currently in progress, with some old laws already repealed and further reforms underway, aiming to streamline governance and improve the efficiency of the judicial system.
