He said that under the law that happens at the time of the incident, the case is made and the new law is applicable to the crime that takes place. Pankaj Dubey, Senior Advocate of the High Court on the matter, said, "As per the law, an FIR is done only under the law which runs at the time of the crime or incident." It contains the same clauses, which are in its provisions till that time. If a new law is enacted, then it applies after its gazette notification. Only after its implementation, the incidents and crimes that will happen will come under the ambit of its new law. The old offences will run according to the old law only.
