The study provides an analytical review of the 2023 revisions in the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita with a focus on their implications for women and children. The recent legislative amendments aim to enhance the legal framework to protect the rights and safety of these vulnerable groups. Key changes include stricter penalties for crimes against women and children, streamlined judicial processes for faster resolution of cases, and the introduction of new provisions to address emerging societal issues. This paper evaluates the efficacy of these changes in addressing existing gaps in the legal protections afforded to women and children, and discusses the potential challenges in their implementation. The analysis draws on legal texts, case studies, and comparative examination to provide a comprehensive overview of the impact of these legislative reforms
