BJD MP Bhartruhari Mahtab after outlining the changes proposed to be introduced by the three bills, says -

"It is imperative that outlook must be changed and law and order must be viewed outside the colonial lens. History is in the making today since new laws for our Indian criminal jurisprudence are being enacted. I thank our HM and PM for taking this initiative. Others could have done it, but they didn't. But this govt took up this challenge."
