This paper presents a comparative study of the new criminal laws enacted in India and their impact on the Indian judicial legal system. In response to evolving societal challenges, such as rising rates of sexual violence and cybercrime, India has introduced significant legislative reforms, including the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, of 2013, and the Information Technology (Amendment) Act, of 2008. This study examines how these new laws align with international standards and human rights norms, focusing on their implications for judicial efficiency, accessibility to justice, and the protection of vulnerable groups. While the reforms aim to modernize the criminal justice system and enhance protection for marginalized communities, implementation gaps, public awareness, and judicial backlog persist. The findings underscore the need for continuous evaluation and reform to ensure the effectiveness of these laws in promoting justice. Recommendations for improved training, public education, and resource allocation are provided to support the successful integration of new criminal laws into the Indian legal framework. Ultimately, this study contributes to the ongoing discourse on enhancing the efficacy of the Indian judicial system in the context of contemporary legal challenges.
