Union Minister Amit Shah on Saturday (October 3, 2026) said that after the full implementation of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), cases from the FIR stage to the Supreme Court will be disposed of within three years.

He was addressing the State-level conference of cattle rearers in Bhopal after inaugurating an exhibition on the new criminal law.

“Today, two events have just taken place in Bhopal. First, an exhibition on the new nyaya sanhita (BNS) was inaugurated, and a conference of cattle rearers was held. Such a large number of cattle rearers have come here, which is a great omen for the milk revolution in Madhya Pradesh,” he said.

Mr. Shah, who heads the Home and Cooperation Ministries, said India’s criminal justice system was earlier known for delays, but the situation had improved.
