Which section of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) mandates video-recording of search and seizure operations?
Section 105
Section 105 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023 mandates that the entire process of conducting a search of a place or taking possession of any property — including the preparation of the list of seized items and signing by witnesses — be recorded through audio-video electronic means, preferably by mobile phone.
The police officer is required to forward such recording without delay to the District Magistrate, Sub-divisional Magistrate or Judicial Magistrate of the first class. This is a new provision (with no direct equivalent in the old CrPC) introduced to bring transparency to search and seizure operations.
Hence the correct answer is Section 105.
