The Tamil Nadu government has decided to appoint a one-man committee under retired Madras High Court judge K. Sathyanarayanan.
It will examine the three new criminal laws and suggest State amendments to them.
The committee would examine, among other issues, the “change in nomenclature” of the new laws at the State level, and submit its recommendations to the State government.
The new criminal laws replacing the Indian Penal Code, the Criminal Procedure Code and the Evidence Act were enacted by Parliament and came into force from July 1.
