Mehta, School of Law, NMIMS Indore ABSTRACT In India, the police play a significant part in the criminal justice system.

We hardly expect to have fair justice without the police investigation, which is the foundation of the criminal justice system. As a crucial component of a law enforcement agency, the police are accountable to the public and society at large for four fundamental duties: upholding the law, prevent crimes, handling emergencies, and offering support services. However, it is crucial for the police to investigate crimes equitably in relation to the criminal justice system. In India, the police are more accountable for taking action, preventing crimes, and conductingimpartial investigations in order to bring justice to the victims of horrible crimes like rape. Theinvestigation is the cornerstone of the fair and accurate justice that is delivered following the criminal justice system's process, even though the Police, Court, and Correction Home or Jail is its three main constituents.
