Headnote | Evidence Act, 1872: s.65B(4) – Videography of scene of crime or scene of recovery during investigation – Electronic evidence – Admissibility of – Procedural requirement – Held: If the electronic evidence is authentic and relevant the same certainly be admitted subject to the court being satisfied about its authenticity and procedure, for its admissibility may depend on fact situation such as whether the person producing such evidence is in a position to furnish certificate under s.65B(4) – A party who is not in possession of device from which the document is produced cannot be required to produce certificate under s.65B(4) – The applicability of requirement of certificate being procedural can be relaxed by Court wherever interest of justice so justifies – The applicability of procedural requirement under s.65B(4) of furnishing certificate is to be applied only when such electronic evidence is produced by a person who is in a position to produce such certificate being in control of the said device and not of the opposite party – In a case where electronic evidence is produced by a party who is not in possession of a device, applicability of ss.63 and 65 cannot be held to be excluded – In such case, procedure under the said Sections can certainly be invoked – If this is not so permitted, it will be denial of justice to the person who is in possession of authentic evidence/ witness but on account of manner of proving, such document is kept out of consideration by the court in absence of certificate under s.65B(4) which party producing cannot possibly secure – Thus, requirement of certificate under s.65B(4) is not always mandatory – Information Technology Act, 2000 – ss.2(t), 2(o). |

It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
