Low spending on judiciary: <\/b>India\u2019s justice system as a whole remains plagued by low budgets. This could be due to the fact that except for two union territories, Delhi and Chandigarh, no state spends more than 1% of its total annual expenditure on the judiciary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Justice Delivery: <\/b>Out of the 18 large and medium-sized states having a population of over 1 crore each, Karnataka ranked first in \u201cjustice delivery\u201d followed by Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh.<\/span><\/p>\n

Judges per million population:<\/b> India had only 19 judges per one million people (when calculated against the sanctioned strength), which falls behind the Law Commission\u2019s 1987 target of reaching 50 judges per million population in a decade.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Police stations and prisons<\/b>: Prisons are over-occupied at over 130% with more than two-thirds or 77.1% of the prisoners still awaiting the completion of investigation or trial.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Moreover, around 25% of the police stations in India do not have a single CCTV.The representation of women in prison staff is also only 13%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 The share of jails with video conferencing increased to 84% as opposed to the previous 60% in 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n

Police: <\/b>The report flags the issue of inadequate women representation in the police, which currently stands at 11.75%, despite their numbers doubling in the last decade.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 The police-to-population ratio is 152.8 per lakh whereas the international standard is 222.<\/span><\/p>\n

Diverse representation:<\/b> Karnataka remains the only state to consistently meet its quota for SC, ST and OBC positions both among Police officers and the constabulary.In judiciary, at the Subordinate\/District Court level, no state met all three quotas.<\/span><\/p>\n
