<h1>State and Central Governments Can Direct Appeals on Inadequate Sentences Under Section 418 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2023.</h1> Section 418 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, allows the State Government to direct the Public Prosecutor to appeal against a sentence deemed inadequate, with appeals directed to the Court of Session if passed by a Magistrate, or to the High Court if passed by any other court. The Central Government can also direct such appeals if the case involves an investigation under a Central Act. The Court cannot enhance the sentence without giving the accused a chance to contest it. Appeals related to specific sections must be resolved within six months of filing.
