one of the most criticized step in the new jj bill 2015 is introduction of "judicial waiver system" which allows treatment of juveniles, in certain conditions,in the adult criminal justice system and to punish them as adults. this is for the first time in india's history that such a provision has been prescribed. given to the severe criticism, bill was referred to a standing committee of parliament which also rejected such provisions. since recommendations of parliament's standing committee are not binding, government has moved ahead and introduced the bill in lok sabha, where it stands passed.
