In my opinion the amendment to CR.P.C. is worst because it gives encouragment to the police and criminals to do more criminal acts colluding each other. It gives scope to the terriorists and other criminals. Much power is given to police, moreover they are police they can do anything using this new code

The latest amendment in Cr PC was scheduled within Jan-Feb, but due to protest nationwide, it has been paused for a while, the law minister has also promised the Delhi Bar Association to look into the Associations raised by the lawyers.
It is somewhat anti-law. Because according to that amendment, every offence whose maximum punishment is of 7 years shall be bailable; it will have 2 difficulties. 1 - The work of lawyers who are primarily engaged in the work of bail matters shall be decreased, it shall reduce the earnings of the lawyers for their livelihood, 2 - Even today in the bailable offences the police personnels earn some money which is around that of a normal earning lawyer, such a money is for police persons only, apart from their salary, so by the amendment, the money which was earned by the skills and by the hard-work of lawyers for his livelihood will now go into the pocket of the police and the small-scale lawyers will become hand to mouth and police persons will earn a lot and lot of extra-money.
The major problem is that by doing so, most of the non-bailable offences shall become bailable, every accused shall be granted bail by the police and the trial shall be delayed which shall amount to miscarriage of justice.
