The National Law University (NLU)-Delhi has been invited to make a presentation before the parliamentary committee on home affairs on three criminal codes, Vice-Chancellor G.S. Bajpai said.
Professor Bajpai was speaking at the 10th convocation of NLU-Delhi on Saturday when 84 and 78 students from the undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, respectively, received degrees in law. Five doctoral degrees were also awarded at the convocation.
“NLU-Delhi, through the Committee for Reforms in Criminal Law [CRCL], spearheaded the ongoing criminal law reforms. Incidentally, I had the very good fortune of serving as the convener of the committee. It is heartening to note that several progressive provisions in the Bills recently introduced in the Parliament were inspired by the committee recommendations. We have also been invited to make a presentation before the recently constituted Joint Parliamentary Committee on the subject of amended laws,” he said.
