In which DG Sudhanshu said, Indian Judicial Code, Indian Civil Protection Code and Indian Evidence Act are independent law of independent India. It has two good aspects. The first is the application of scientific knowledge in the field of investigation and justice. The second was to set a time frame for the settlement of various case. In the previous system, justice was delayed. Date after date kept rolling. But the new law has set a specific time frame for the investigation and justice of the case, which will speed up the justice process.
