As per the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, how should every summons issued by a Court be formatted?
In duplicate, signed and sealed or sent via encrypted digital form
Under Section 63 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023, which replaced the CrPC, 1973, every summons issued by a Court must be in writing and in duplicate, signed by the presiding officer of the Court (or another officer authorised by the High Court), and bear the seal of the Court.
The BNSS also adds a new mode: the summons may be issued in an encrypted or other form of electronic communication, bearing the image of the Court's seal or a digital signature.
A handwritten summons sent by personal messenger, verbal instructions, or a sealed envelope signed by any police officer are not recognised forms of a Court summons under the Sanhita.
Hence, the answer is: In duplicate, signed and sealed or sent via encrypted digital form.
