Abstract:

This research paper delves into the complex relationship between colonial-era laws and contemporary justice systems, focusing specifically on India's death penalty laws. India, like many post-colonial nations, inherited a legal framework deeply influenced by its colonial past. The death penalty, a contentious issue worldwide, highlights the ongoing impact of colonial legacies on modern justice systems. This paper explores the historical context of India's death penalty laws, analyzes their present-day application, and advocates for a decolonized approach to justice that reflects the values and needs of the Indian populace.
