Undertrial: An undertrial is a person who is currently on trial or who is imprisoned on remand whilst awaiting trial or a person who is on a trial in a court of law.
According to National Crime Record Bureau (NCRB), 77% were undertrials in 2021.
Section 436A states that when an person has (during investigation/trial under the CrPC for an offence other than for which punishment of death has been specified) undergone detention for a period extending up to one-half of the maximum period of imprisonment specified for that offence, the person shall be released by the Court on a personal bond.
Section 167 states that undertrial prisoners have the indefeasible right to be released on default bail (even for non-bailable offences), when their judicial custody exceeds 90/60 days, but no charge sheet has been filed by the police.
But it is not being followed.
2. Remission
In remission, the nature of the sentence remains untouched, while the duration is reduced i.e., the rest of the sentence need not be undergone.
The effect of the remission is that the prisoner is given a certain date on which he shall be released and in the eyes of the law he would be a free man.
However Remission is granted to convict only but now Undertrials will also get remission, in Delhi
#Polity GS Paper 2
Context:
The Tamil Nadu Assembly adopted a resolution, urging the Centre to amend the Constitution to extend statutory protection, rights, and concessions, including reservation, to Scheduled Caste members who have converted to Christianity.
CM Stalin said: “While humans have the right to follow the religion of their choice, they cannot do it in the case of caste. Caste is not just about the identity of two different persons. On the other hand, it treats one as higher and the other as lower. It is not horizontal, but vertical. The philosophy of social justice is to use the same casteism, a tool of oppression, to provide reservation and uplift the victims of oppression. It is the objective of the ‘Dravidian Model Government’ to follow in all aspects.
According to the Constitution, those who have converted to any religion, other than Sikhism and Buddhism, cannot claim the Scheduled Caste status. When they remain as the Scheduled Castes historically, it is but fair to extend them the benefits.
2007 Rangnath Misra committee suggested that reservations benefits be extended to Dalits who accepted Christianity and Islam.
This Government has constituted Justice K G Balakrishnan Commission to look into the plea of Dalits christians and Muslim to be included in reservation quotas.
