Plan for central pool of documentary proof
News:
A proposal for creating a centralised pool of documentary evidence has been pending consideration with the government
Important Facts:
- Documentary proof gathered by the respective agencies would be stored at a single place
- Its certified copies would be made available for the purposes of investigations and use as evidence in the court of law.
- The plan to create centralised pool of documentary evidence would necessitate relevant amendments to the legislation governing each agency in terms of evidence collection.
- Benefits:

- Time-effective and would address the issue of delays in investigations due to large time taken in information sharing
- Ensure transparency in the system
