INTRODUCTION
Evidence is defined as everything which is required to substantiate a claim, such as the fact in question or the factum probandum. Before the applicable laws and their provisions may be implemented, facts must be established. Evidence is what leads to the verification of facts and, in turn, aids the legal authorities in reaching a reasoned conclusion.
Furthermore, the law of evidence aids in the avoidance of lengthy investigations and the acceptance of more evidence than is required, reducing trial time and saving money.
The Indian Evidence Act of 1872 governs the law of evidence in India. The 1872 Indian Evidence Act is primarily based on English evidence law. The Act does not pretend to be exhaustive, and courts may resort to relevant English common law for interpretation if it is not contradictory with the Act. The Act unifies, specifies, and modifies evidence laws.
