my uttarakhand news | DEHRADUN Union Home minister Amit Shah chaired a meeting to review the implementation of three new criminal laws in Uttarakhand in the presence of chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami in New Delhi on Tuesday. He reviewed the implementation and current status of various new provisions related to police, jails, courts, prosecution and forensics in Uttarakhand. He said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the three new criminal laws are becoming the protectors of civil rights and the basis of ‘ease of justice’. He asked Dhami to implement the new criminal laws 100 percent as soon as possible. Shah said that the new laws are victim and citizen centric and they need to be implemented promptly with this spirit. He said that the Uttarakhand government should make efforts to fill the gaps in technology and other areas towards 100 percent implementation of the new laws. The Home minister further said that the Uttarakhand government should give priority to 100 per cent implementation of the new laws in all police stations and jails in areas where more FIRs are registered. Emphasising on the use of technology, he said that more than one forensic mobile van should be available in every district of the State. Shah said that for forensic visits, teams should be divided into three categories – serious, normal and very normal – so that resources can be better utilised. Along with this, he also emphasised that a protocol should be made to decide the designated place for video conferencing and the cameras installed at all places should be of excellent quality. Shah said that there should be regular and continuous monitoring of how many of the total zero FIRs registered have been brought to justice and how many FIRs have been transferred to the states. He said that the CM should review the progress of implementation of the three new laws every 15 days and the chief secretary and director general of police once a week with the officials of all the departments concerned. Shah suggested that the DGP should ensure that all the superintendents of police investigate the cases within the prescribed timelines.
