Guest Lecture on Investigation and Prosecution of Crimes in India
On
18th September, 2019, School of Law conducted a guest lecture on the
theme “Investigation and Prosecution of Crimes in India”. The Ex DGP of
Bihar, Dr. D.N. Gautam was the keynote speaker for the event. His
general approach to elaborate the theme made the concept easy for the
first year undergraduate student to comprehend. He discussed the
adversarial model of justice followed in India in his lecture and
pointed out that fair trial is the goal and the prosecutors need to
prove the case beyond reasonable doubts. Failure of the prosecutors to
prove cases beyond reasonable doubt leads to the benefit of doubt to the
accused, which leads to acquittals. The role of prosecutors in India is
very significant since more acquittals can encourage criminal
activities in the future and may lead to a rise in the crime rate. After
this great lecture and interactive session, Dr. Ramesh Kumar, Head of
Department, School of Law Delhi- NCR campus presented a gift to Dr. D.N.
Gautam as a token of gratitude.
