BNSS default bail: how the 60/90-day clock is now computed

The transition from s.167 CrPC to s.187 BNSS carries forward the default-bail structure — 60 or 90 days depending on the offence — but instructing advocates should check the applicable law by the date of the alleged offence, not the date of filing, where a matter straddles the transition.
