नवीन आपराधिक कानूनों पर आधारित बहुविकल्पीय प्रश्न (Multiple Choice Questions Based on New Criminal Laws) by Pragya Kiran, published by Whitesmann, is a Hindi-medium MCQ practice book built entirely around India's three new criminal law codes. This is the Latest Edition 2026-27.

India's criminal law was replaced wholesale on 1st July 2024, when the Indian Penal Code, the Code of Criminal Procedure and the Indian Evidence Act gave way to the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam. Every law examination now tests the new codes, and candidates who studied the old ones need to know exactly what changed. This book is written for that transition, in Hindi.

Important Areas Covered

The questions are organised by statute and then by topic within each statute, so a candidate can work through one area at a time rather than facing a random mixed set.

Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 (BNS) — the substantive criminal law that replaced the Indian Penal Code, 1860: general explanations and definitions, punishments, the right of private defence, abetment, criminal conspiracy, offences against the State and against the human body, offences against women and children, offences against property, and offences relating to documents and marriage.

Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS) — the procedural code that replaced the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973: the constitution of criminal courts, powers of police officers, arrest, summons and warrants, search and seizure, information to the police and investigation, jurisdiction, the framing of charges, trial procedure, judgment, appeals, revision, bail and bonds.

Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (BSA) — the law of evidence that replaced the Indian Evidence Act, 1872: relevancy of facts, admissions and confessions, dying declarations, expert opinion, character evidence, oral and documentary evidence, electronic records, presumptions, burden of proof, estoppel, and the examination of witnesses.

The comparative tables set the old sections against their new counterparts, which is what most candidates actually need when carrying forward earlier preparation.

Who Should Buy This Book?

• Candidates for Judicial Services examinations preparing in Hindi
• Candidates for the All India Bar Examination (AIBE)
• Candidates for APO (Assistant Prosecution Officer) examinations
• Candidates for Higher Judicial Service (HJS) examinations
• LL.M. entrance and university examination candidates
• LL.B. students being examined on the new criminal codes
• Advocates and practitioners revising the new codes
• Coaching institutes and faculty teaching criminal law in Hindi

Why Choose This Book?

Objective papers on the new codes reward precision — section numbers, altered thresholds, renumbered provisions and the small changes in wording between the old and new Acts. Working through a large, well-organised question bank is the most efficient way to build that precision, and 3,600+ questions is enough volume to cover the codes rather than sample them.

For Hindi-medium candidates in particular, practising in the language of the examination matters: legal terminology in Hindi is a frequent source of lost marks, and this edition presents both the questions and the comparative tables in Hindi.
