ABSTRACT
The contemporary criminal justice system is undergoing a paradigm shift through the integration of advanced technologies, fundamentally reshaping law enforcement, prosecution, adjudication, and correctional processes. This paper critically examines the multidimensional impact of technological advancements on the Indian criminal justice system. Many technological advancements, including AI, cyber security, digital forensics, surveillance, etc., have significantly enhanced the prosecution of cases and law enforcement with a little chance of wrongful accusation or conviction. However, these have added up to some novel issues including privacy, data integrity, and ethical governance. The paper analyses the use of technology in various aspects including prosecution and correctional system. The paper also talks about balancing the technological advancement with the constitutional rights, especially in light of India's evolving data protection laws and infrastructural limitations. Also, the paper seeks to analyse the effect of technology on the prosecution, punishment and law enforcement.
