SAULSGPT — LAYER 6: LEGAL KNOWLEDGE GRAPH

==========================================

Uses NetworkX to map institutional relationships across Indian law.

Acts as a high-speed (<1ms) post-retrieval context expander and reasoning anchor.



What it maps:

→ Act level replacements (IPC → BNS, CrPC → BNSS, IEA → BSA 2023)

→ Constitutional Overrides & Fundamental Rights (Articles 14, 19, 21, 22, 32, 226, 300A)

→ Criminal offences, punishments, and definitions (BNS / IPC)

→ Criminal procedure pipelines (Zero FIR → SP Escalation → S.156(3) Magistrate → S.482 Quashing)

→ Civil Procedure & Injunctions (Order 39, Order 7 Rule 11, Order 37 CPC)

→ Family & Matrimonial Law (HMA 13/24/25, HSA 6/8/30 Coparcenary, PWDVA 2005)

→ Commercial, Cheque Bounce & Arbitration (NI Act 138, S.27 Contract Act, Arb Act 1996)

→ Struck Down & Landmark Supreme Court Precedents (Shreya Singhal, Joseph Shine, Navtej Johar, Puttaswamy)
