The Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), expected to replace the 163-year-old IPC, intends to include organised crimes like ATM thefts, leaking question papers, shoplifting, car theft and stealing valuables from a car among new offences under a specific section, with a convict liable for jail term ranging from one to 7 years along with a fine. There’s no provision in IPC that specifically deals with these offences — often bracketing them under the broad head of ‘theft’ under Section 378.
