Abstract This report looks at how well India's law enforcement and courts are set up to handle digital evidence. Even with government efforts and new laws, there is still a "digital divide." This means not just a lack of technology, but also a shortage of special skills, standard tools, and proper systems for digital evidence. Key problems include complex rules for using evidence in court, not enough skilled people, and big differences in technology across different areas. The report shows that while new laws like the Bhartiya Sakshya Adhiniyam (BSA) 2023 try to make handling digital evidence easier, new unclear areas and existing problems still slow down justice. We suggest better training, fair technology distribution, clearer rules, and ways to keep skilled people to build a stronger and fairer digital justice system in India.
