THE INDIAN PENAL CODE
null
CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
null
The Indian Penal Code was drafted by the First Indian Law Commission presided over
null
by Lord Thomas Babington Macaulay. The draft underwent further revision at the hands
null
of well-known jurists, like Sir Barnes Peacock, and was completed in 1850. The Indian
null
Penal Code was passed by the then Legislature on 6 October 1860 and was enacted as
null
Act No. XLV of 1860.
null
Preamble. WHEREAS it is expedient to provide a general
null
Penal Code for India; It is enacted as follows:—
null
COMMENT.—The Indian Penal Code, 1860 (IPC, 1860) exhaustively codifies the law
null
relating to offences with which it deals and the rules of the common law cannot be
null
resorted to for inventing exemptions which are not expressly enacted.1. It is not
null
necessary and indeed not permissible to construe the IPC, 1860 at the present day in
null
accordance with the notions of criminal jurisdiction prevailing at the time when the
null
Code was enacted. The notions relating to this matter have very considerably changed
null
between then and now during nearly a century that has elapsed. It is legitimate to
null
construe the Code with reference to the modern needs, wherever this is permissible,
null
unless there is anything in the Code or in any particular section to indicate the
null
contrary.2.
null
77.[[s 5] Certain laws not to be affected by this Act.
null
Nothing in this Act shall affect the provisions of any Act for punishing mutiny and
null
desertion of officers, soldiers, sailors or airmen in the service of the Government of
null
India or the provisions of any special or local law 1 .]
null
COMMENT—
null
This section is a saving clause to section 2. Though the Code was intended to be a
null
general one, it was not thought desirable to make it exhaustive, and hence, offences
null
defined by local and special laws were left out of the Code, and merely declared to be
null
punishable as theretofore.78. Thus, the personnel of the Army, Navy and Airforce are
null
governed by the provisions of the Army Act, 1950, The Navy Act, 1957, and The Indian
null
Air Force Act, 1950 in regard to offences of mutiny and desertion committed by
null
them.79.
null
1. 'Special or local law'.—A special law is a law relating to a particular subject;80.
null
whereas a local law is a law which applies only to a particular part of the country.81.
null
The distinction between a statute creating a new offence with a particular penalty and
null
a statute enlarging the ambit of an existing offence by including new acts within it with
null
a particular penalty is well settled. In the former case the new offence is punishable by
null
the new penalty only; in the latter it is punishable also by all such penalties as were
null
applicable before the Act to the offence in which it is included. The Principle is that
null
where a new offence is created and the particular manner in which proceedings should
null
be taken is laid down, then proceedings cannot be taken in any other way.82. However,
null
a person cannot be punished under both the Penal Code and a special law for the same
null
offence,83. and ordinarily the sentence should be under the special Act.84. This is,
null
