Criminal Law is the branch of law that deals with actions or behaviors that are considered harmful to society and are punishable under the law. It defines what acts are crimes — such as theft, fraud, assault, murder, and cyber offenses — and sets out the procedures for investigating, charging, and prosecuting individuals accused of committing them.

Criminal Law serves two main purposes: to maintain law and order by deterring unlawful acts, and to ensure justice by protecting the rights of the accused through fair trials and legal representation. It covers a wide range of activities, from filing a First Information Report (FIR) and obtaining bail, to conducting trials, appeals, and revisions in courts at various levels.
