Law relating to bails like any other concept of criminal laws has its own reasoning and its own journey of development. For one to understand the concept of bails has to see its various stages of development. In earlier times, people did not understand the concept of bails or did not take it very seriously but with the development of society people have accepted it as a rule. It has with time become an important part of the criminal procedure and is crucial for administration of justice. The laws relating to bail as operating today are in a need to be reformed. The laws as existing today may cause certain hardships as there is no proper timeline when these bail applications have to be dismissed, there is lack of proper facilities for people in prison, the number of accused detained in prison has also been increasing. There have been cases where the trial has gone long and the person has undergone the prison period more than what has been given as punishment for his offence under the law. This leads to injustice for innocent people who are not guilty but then also they have to go through this prison period. Thus, this paper will analyse the need to bring reforms in the bail laws of India and how a separate legislation dealing with law of bails can help the Indian courts in providing a speedier justice.
