Review
- Academy Law Review : The qualities are too numerous to evaluate and it is too difficult to find out errors. The format remaining Kelkarian, the reviser has proved himself to be a proud student of the illustrious author. All important aspects are supported by the latest Supreme Court and High Court decisions. The exercises at the end of the lectures based on the latest decisions and articles ably prove the amount of research done in the preparation of the work. The source of information and the material mentioned in the exercises will certainly help a teacher to prepare for his classes. The contents and the subject index are well prepared.
- Review Projector : Dr. Pillai has done a very fine work in updating and supplementing the original edition. He has, thus, provided valuable reading material to the students of law.
- Delhi Law Review : The topical headings are enriched with statutory references and case-law citations, apart from academic writings. The language is very simple and the presentation is very effective. The book is an excellent work, which would be of immense use not only for law students as a text book but also for the Bench and the Bar as a quick reference book on criminal procedure.
- Kerala Law Times : The book has been enriched with a large number of references and a useful index at the end. The approach is two fold: Not only are the basic principles and doctrines analysed and discussed, effort is also made to include the most recent developments in one of the most rapidly changing branches.
- Administrator : The uniqueness of the book lies in the fact that it has treated the subject matter in a simple language and easy style. It contains an accurate and well laid summary of the principles of law and their application in various situations. The book has become very interesting.
- Cochin University Law Review : It is an accepted fact that in the present day scholarly legal writings there is a definite communication gap between the author and the reader. This book is an exception.
- Gujarat Law Reporter: There are numerous books published on Criminal Procedure Code, but the present one is a classic itself. It brings out the intricacies of the principles and provisions, behind the judicial decisions in precise, concise and lucid terms and language. … It’s a unique book, immensely useful to lawyers practicing on Criminal side, and students to keep abreast with this branch of law.
