<h1>Delhi Police Authorized to Use Video Depositions from All 226 Stations under New Rules to Save Time</h1> Delhi Police have been authorized to present video depositions from designated police stations in court proceedings, as per an order by the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi. This authorization includes all 226 police stations across various units such as district, metro rail, cyber, railway, crime branch, airport, and specialized cells. The measure aims to reduce police officers' travel time to courts, where approximately 2,000 officers testify daily. The reform aligns with draft model rules under the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita and is intended to streamline evidence presentation and decongest courts. The Union Home Minister has directed the installation of sufficient video conferencing facilities to facilitate this process, emphasizing that the provision applies exclusively to police officers, not witnesses. Previously, video depositions were limited to courts, prisons, hospitals, forensic labs, and select government offices.
