Earlier on Sunday, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta launched the MedLEaPR (Medico-Legal Examination and Postmortem Reporting) at the Secretariat and said that it is a transformative step in improving the efficiency and credibility of India's criminal justice process.
Speaking at an official briefing, Gupta said the initiative was launched in response to the three new criminal laws enacted by the Central Government to overhaul and modernise the justice system.
"Three new criminal laws came into being through the Central Government. To improve the entire justice system, MedLEaPR has been introduced...There used to be a delay in our justice system, loopholes were left in it, and there used to be doubts regarding discrepancies and problems. Through MedLEaPR, we will be able to curb all of that, bringing in improved efficiency, and there will be better coordination," Rekha Gupta said. (ANI)
