Abstract
Community service helps in the reformation of the offender and it is beneficial for society. The concept of community service is not present in the Indian penal code because IPC was enacted in 1860 and at that time there was no such thing as community service in India. But with the change in time, circumstances, and society in which we live there is a dire need for the inclusion of community service as an alternative form of punishment. The need of the hour is the proper legal framework to monitor and implement community service as an alternative form of punishment.
Keywords: community service, reformative theory, probation
