For law students, judiciary aspirants & advocates
Two criminal codes. One place that speaks both.
India rewrote its criminal law in 2024. Your books still say IPC, CrPC and Evidence Act; your exams and courts now say BNS, BNSS and BSA. Vidhara reads both — and shows you exactly how they line up.
Try it — type any section:
Every provision traced to the government’s own PDF — and we publish the mistakes we’ve found and fixed. How we verify
The problem
One section, two names — and everyone’s mid-switch.
Cheating was IPC §420 for 160 years. Since 1 July 2024 it’s BNS §318. Multiply that by 3,000+ sections and you get every law student’s daily friction. Vidhara turns that lookup into a single tap.
Old law
IPC §420
Cheating and dishonestly inducing…
New law
BNS §318
Cheating — consolidated & updated
How it works
Type any section
Old or new — “420 IPC”, “BNS 103”, even “u/s 154 CrPC”. However your notes wrote it.
Read the real text
The full, official bare-act text — not a summary — in a reader built for actually reading.
See what changed
The matching section in the other code sits right beside it, with a note on what moved.
What you get
The official mapping, free
Every IPC⇄BNS, CrPC⇄BNSS and Evidence⇄BSA section pairing — from the government's own NCRB concordance, not guesswork.
Bare acts, finally readable
3,000+ sections across 8 major acts, from the official Gazette — structured, searchable, and typeset for long study sessions.
Built for the transition
Your textbook says IPC 420; your exam says BNS 318. Open either one and the other is right there, both texts in full.
Every text is reproduced from official Government of India sources — the Gazette of India and India Code — with provenance recorded on each act.
Test yourself, not just your notes
Every question is built from the official mapping — never invented. One a day to build the habit, or unlimited practice when you’re revising.
Coming next — you decide
