This law amends the Criminal Law Amendment Act of 1952 specifically for the state of Arunachal Pradesh. It establishes stricter qualifications for individuals appointed as Special Judges, requiring them to be senior judicial officers or Deputy Commissioners with legal backgrounds. Additionally, the Act clarifies that references to the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898, within the main law are to be interpreted according to the specific legal framework currently in force in Arunachal Pradesh. This ensures the state's criminal justice system operates with qualified judges and aligns with local legal standards to improve the administration of justice.
