Q. How many chapters does the Bhartiya Nyaya Samhita consist of?
Answer: 20
Notes: Bhartiya Nyaya Samhita (BNS) was recently constituted as a more concise and organized version of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). Decluttering various outdated sections of the IPC, the BNS has been streamlined to consist of just 20 chapters and 358 sections, in contrast to the 511 sections of the IPC. This restructuring has made it more transparent and will hopefully ensure the efficient functioning of the justice system.
