βοΈπ Indian Legal Qwen 2.5 β 1.5B (GGUF)
π‘ This is the GGUF-quantized version β for CPU inference via Ollama or llama.cpp. For full-precision inference see the Merged Model Β· For lightweight adapter loading see the Adapter.
π Model Description
Indian Legal Qwen 2.5 β 1.5B (GGUF) is a quantized, CPU-friendly version of GSMS-B/Indian-Legal-Qwen2.5-1.5B, a domain-adapted model fine-tuned using QLoRA on a structured question-answer dataset covering all 1,059 sections of India's three landmark 2023 criminal justice reform acts:
| Act | Full Name | Replaces | Sections |
|---|---|---|---|
| π BNS 2023 | Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita | IPC 1860 | 358 |
| π BNSS 2023 | Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita | CrPC 1973 | 531 |
| π BSA 2023 | Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam | Indian Evidence Act 1872 | 170 |
Trained on 6,354 instruction-format QA pairs β 6 question types per section covering definitions, scenarios, legal elements, exceptions, and consequences β giving it broad, structured coverage of India's reformed criminal law framework. As the smallest model in the family, this GGUF build is ideal for fast, fully offline CPU inference.
π Model Family β Qwen 2.5 1.5B
| Variant | Repo | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| π’ Merged | GSMS-B/Indian-Legal-Qwen2.5-1.5B | Out-of-the-box inference, Gradio / API deployment |

π― Recommended Use Cases
β οΈ Important Note: This model has been domain-adapted on structured QA data and works best as a component in a larger pipeline rather than a standalone answer engine. Direct usage without retrieval context may produce incomplete or imprecise answers on complex legal queries.
β Where this model excels
| Use Case | π‘ How to Use |
|---|---|
| π RAG Pipeline | Pair with a BM25 or vector retriever over BNS/BNSS/BSA texts; feed retrieved sections as context for grounded, citation-backed answers |
| π€ Legal Chatbot Backend | Use as the generation backbone of a legal assistant app with a ChromaDB / FAISS document store |
| π Legal Education Tool | Build interactive Q&A apps for law students and practitioners learning the 2023 criminal justice reforms |
| π Section Lookup Assistant | Combine with a section index to surface the exact BNS / BNSS / BSA provision relevant to a given situation |
| π» Offline / Edge Deployment | Smallest model in the family, runnable on consumer CPUs without a GPU β ideal for local apps, kiosks, or low-resource environments |
| π Structured Legal Summarization | Summarize individual sections when the section text is supplied as input context |
| ποΈ Legal NLP Research | Benchmark Indian criminal law understanding across model families (Qwen vs Llama) |
| βοΈ Comparative Law Analysis | Highlight differences between old acts (IPC/CrPC/IEA) and their 2023 replacements |
β Not recommended for
- Standalone legal advice without a retrieval component
- High-stakes legal decisions without qualified human review
- Jurisdictions or acts outside BNS / BNSS / BSA 2023
