- OUR CORRESPONDENT

Delhi Police has launched a week-long awareness drive at Bharat Mandapam to familiarise the public with the new criminal laws that came into effect last year.

Organised by the Crime Branch from July 1 to July 6, the exhibition aims to educate people about the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA), along with the digital tools and reforms now integrated into the criminal justice system.

Key reforms being highlighted include the use of eSakshya for secure and tamper-proof digital evidence collection, MedLEaPR (Medical Legal Examination and Post Mortem Report) for real-time transmission of medical reports via the Crime and Criminal Tracking Network and Systems (CCTNS), and eForensics 2.0, which enables the electronic dispatch of exhibits to forensic labs, reducing procedural delays.
