Under the BNSS, 2023 the default procedure for offences punishable up to seven years is issuance of a notice under Section 35(3); arrest under Sections 35(1)(b) and 35(6) is discretionary and permissible only if an objective necessity exists and the officer has a recorded "reason to believe."

Article 21 safeguards apply to arrest and investigation, and arrest cannot be used merely for convenience or to facilitate questioning.
