Shantiniketan (WB), Nobel laureate Amartya Sen on Saturday said he does not consider the replacement of the IPC with the Indian Code of Justice (BNS) as a "welcome change" as it was done without extensive discussion involving all stakeholders.
Speaking to reporters in Shantiniketan, Sen said that there is a need for a comprehensive discussion before making new laws.
“There is no evidence that any such comprehensive dialogue was held with all the stakeholders before its implementation. Also in this huge country, a state like Manipur and any other state like Madhya Pradesh do not have the same problems. "Can happen." ," He said.
"Any move to bring such changes with the help of majority without discussion with all concerned parties cannot be called a welcome change, it is a good change which bodes well for me," he said.
Sen was also asked about the Lok Sabha election results.
"The election results show that this (Hindutva) brand of politics has failed to some extent," he said.
The economist said that the main reason for unemployment in the country is the neglect of education and health sectors.
He said that he did not find anything unique in the 'New Education Policy, 2020'.
He said, "There is not much innovation in the new education policy."
