The Centre on Friday approved the Ministry of Home Affairs’ implementation of Phase II of the Inter-Operable Criminal Justice System (ICJS) project for a total expenditure of Rs 3,375 crore from 2022-23 to 2025-26.

This phase, which will be strictly supervised by Union Home Minister Amit Shah, will pave the way for effective and modern policing.

According to an MHA statement, the project will be implemented as a central sector programme.

The ICJS is a national platform that allows the integration of the country’s principal IT system for criminal justice delivery. It aims to connect the system’s five pillars: police (through Crime and Criminal Tracking and Network Systems), e-Forensics for forensic labs, e-Courts for courts, e-Prosecution for public prosecutors, and e-Prisons for prisons.

Individual IT systems have been built and stabilised in Phase I of the project, according to MHA, while record search has been enabled on these platforms.

“Under Phase-II, the system is being created on the idea of ‘one data, one entry,’ where data is entered only once in one pillar and is then available in all other pillars without the need to re-enter the data in each pillar,” according to a statement from the MHA.

The ICJS system, according to MHA, will be accessible via a specialised and secure cloud-based infrastructure with high-speed connectivity.

The initiative will be implemented by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) in collaboration with the National Informatics Centre (NIC). The initiative will be carried out in cooperation with the states and union territories, according to the MHA.
