The edition significantly focuses on bifurcation and comparison between the old Act under each section, helping students to understand the differences made in the Adhiniyam, 2023.
The Indian Evidence Act, 1872, which originated during the British rule and even continued after India's independence, has now been repealed by "The Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023". However, despite the repeal, the BSA, 2023 still retains the core provisions of the erstwhile Indian Evidence Act, 1872, Sir James Fitzjames Stephen's classic exposition on the principles of the law of evidence.
