"The declining standards of criminal justice in India are a matter of concern to everyone particularly to those who are responsible for making justice system meaningful. The reason for decline mainly rests with non-upgradation of the system. "Crime, Criminal Justice and Human Rights attempts to review the working of police, the public prosecutor, the magistrates and other courts and the condition of the prisons and the remand homes. In a democratic society governed by rule of law the state has a right to do what is fair and just to the citizen. At the same time the legitimate claim of the citizens should not be defeated. "The lawyers and judges have a duty towards the society and their integrity and legal acumen determine the quality of justice. "Crime, Criminal Justice and Human Rights presents the criminal justice in India in new perspective, quoting the observations of eminent jurists and judges. It is a boon to legal community, academics, researchers and all others interested in civil liberties and human rights."
