According to Shah, the new rules will make the nation’s criminal justice system the most cutting-edge and sophisticated in the world since they place more emphasis on providing justice than on punishing offenders.
AI-driven analytical strategy to be used
The home minister emphasized that in order to address new security threats, databases must be linked together and an AI-driven analytical strategy must be used.
He emphasized that since 2014, the security situation in the nation has generally improved, particularly with regard to the decline in violence in three key hotspots: Jammu and Kashmir, the Northeast, and places impacted by left-wing extremism.
In order to successfully implement the three new laws, Shah emphasized the necessity of training police officers at all levels, from Station House Officer (SHO) or officer-in-charge of a police station to DGP, as well as technology upgrades from police stations to police headquarters.
