Section 222 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, (BSA), 2023
Sure! Here's a clearer explanation:
The Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (also called the Indian Evidence Act, 2023) is a new law in India that sets out the rules about evidence in courts. It replaces the older Evidence Act from 1872 to make the legal process more modern and fair.
Regarding Section 221:
This section deals with what happens when a document that should be shown in court is not produced, even after being asked for.
If a party is asked to produce a document but doesn’t, the court will assume that the document was properly made and signed (executed) as required by law.
This helps prevent people from hiding or refusing to show important documents during a trial.
As for Section 222, there is no such section in this new law, which means it either does not exist or the numbering stops before that.
