Abstract: This paper will look into the disciplinary and legal framework in relation to the use and application of forensic science in the criminal justice system. In addition, it will attempt to investigate the reasons behind the relatively early stage of forensic science's involvement in Indian criminal justice administration, despite significant technical advancements over the past several years that have brought our society closer to a higher level of scientific sophistication. In order to deliver prompt justice and remedies to victims of horrific crimes, the Indian judicial system must be reshaped and altered to make use of forensic investigations and trials that are focused on achieving certain goals. The thesis is restricted to these subjects and does not address computational or cyber forensics. Instead, it focuses on the application of forensic science and the study of forensic entomology, forensic DNA analysis, forensic chemistry, bloodstain pattern analysis, and forensic art. As seen in the past ten years, there have been notable changes in crime investigation procedures in light of technology advancements brought about by the advancements in the criminal justice system. Establishing a critical connection between the crime and the accused criminals is facilitated by police officials' use of scientific tools and procedures in crime detection. These tangible proofs are trustworthy in ascertaining the veracity of the accused criminal's or offender's innocence or guilt.
