<h1>Section 156: Magistrate to Inquire Denial of Public Rights, Stay Proceedings if Evidence Exists, Proceed Otherwise</h1> Section 156 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, addresses the procedure when the existence of a public right is denied. If an order is made to prevent public obstruction or nuisance, the Magistrate must question the individual involved about the denial of public rights. If the individual denies such rights, the Magistrate will inquire further. If reliable evidence supports the denial, proceedings are stayed until a court decides on the matter. Without evidence, the Magistrate proceeds per section 157. Individuals failing to deny initially or provide evidence cannot deny the public right in subsequent proceedings.
