The criminal judicial jurisprudence has been suffering with pendency of cases, insufficient number of Judges, numeral adjournment due to inexplicable reasons, excessive cases of under trails, lack of proper legal research, poor record management, legal rigidity, lack of legal aid mechanism and inappropriate ratio of judge per person. The criminal justice system needs wheel of reforms, to protect and best serve the right of fair trial. AI is the technological development that means ability of a machine possessing rationality to act over data including skills of problem solving & machine learning. The technological launch of Artificial Intelligence has opened the door of opportunities in technological as well as other spheres of disciplines including health sector, legal sector, agricultural etc.
AI can act as a catalyst for timely, effective and quality justice. So, that the pendency of the cases can be minimized. In this research work, emphasis is made with regards to criminal justice system. In this research project, the researcher has studied, analysed and discover scope of Artificial Intelligence in Criminal Justice system in India with its relevant features, merits and demerits from perspective of: judges, firms, litigants, prisoner and victim. The Supreme Court already has taken a step towards this by introducing e-governance mechanism by launching SUPACE, LIMBS, SUVAS. The concept of AI can bring speed to the judicial system with legal Analytics, record maintenance, transparency, organize vast data of filing of cases highlighting important facts and issue, research of law and legal principles relevant to case that can save time of judge and advocates, can provide relevant case similar to case in hand for supporting argument. AI has wide usage from document analytical job where it can give estimation of possible outcomes, to propose optimal solution without any scope of biasness. Also, AI has an unprecedent scope of upgrading legal research in India for producing better quantitative and qualitative results. AI can be the tool of predictive justice in India.
