NEW DELHI: Emphasising on the use of technology in implementation of the new criminal laws, Union home minister Amit Shah on Tuesday said it should enable generation of alerts for all criminal cases at pre-defined stages and timelines - right from registration to disposal - for the benefit of victims and complainants. Chairing a review meeting on implementation of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita , Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam with National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) brass, Shah suggested alerts for investigation officers and senior officers as per pre-defined timelines, so as to expedite the probe process. The review meet - attended by senior officials of home ministry, NCRB and National Informatics Centre - took stock of the implementation of integration of various software and databases pertaining to investigation, prosecution, forensics and courts at all-India level.
These include the crime and criminal tracking network and systems (CCTNS), national automated fingerprint identification system, prisons, courts, prosecution and forensics with the Interoperable Criminal Justice System (ICJS) 2.0. Shah directed NCRB to facilitate complete implementation of new criminal laws in ICJS 2.

In a separate meeting on Tuesday, Shah also reviewed the implementation of new criminal laws in Uttarakhand, with the state chief secretary and DGP, in the presence of CM Pushkar Singh Dhami. Asking Dhami to fully implement the laws - which he said are becoming "protectors of civil rights" and the basis of "ease of justice" - as soon as possible, he emphasised on the need to fill the gaps in technology and other areas for their 100% rollout.
