<h1>Section 346: Courts Can Postpone Trials But Must Conclude Certain Offenses Within Two Months of Chargesheet Filing.</h1> Section 346 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, outlines the power of courts to postpone or adjourn proceedings during inquiries or trials. Proceedings should continue daily until all witnesses are examined unless adjournment is necessary, with reasons recorded. Trials for certain offenses must conclude within two months of chargesheet filing. Courts can adjourn for reasonable periods, with conditions such as not exceeding 15-day remands and recording reasons for adjournments. Adjournments for party requests are limited to uncontrollable circumstances, with a maximum of two allowed. Advocate engagements elsewhere are not valid grounds for adjournment.
