भारतीय साक्ष्य अधिनियम (BSA) का एक प्रमुख उद्देश्य ‘दस्तावेज़ों’ के दायरे का विस्तार करके इनमें क्या शामिल करना है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Electronic records, including emails, server logs and digital signatures/इलेक्ट्रॉनिक रिकॉर्ड, जिसमें ईमेल, सर्वर लॉग और डिजिटल हस्ताक्षर शामिल हैं
Explanation / व्याख्या
The Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 expands the meaning of “documents” to include electronic and digital records. The Act’s definition expressly includes things like emails, server logs, documents on computers/laptops/smartphones, messages, websites, locational evidence, and voicemail messages stored on digital devices.
भारतीय साक्ष्य अधिनियम, 2023 में “दस्तावेज़” की परिभाषा का दायरा बढ़ाकर इलेक्ट्रॉनिक और डिजिटल अभिलेख भी शामिल किए गए हैं। इसमें स्पष्ट रूप से ईमेल, सर्वर लॉग, कंप्यूटर/लैपटॉप/स्मार्टफोन पर मौजूद दस्तावेज़, संदेश, वेबसाइट, लोकेशन साक्ष्य और डिजिटल डिवाइस में संग्रहित वॉइसमेल को दस्तावेज़ माना गया है।
The law also aligns with the broader legal recognition of electronic records and digital signatures in Indian law.
यह कानून भारतीय विधि में इलेक्ट्रॉनिक रिकॉर्ड और डिजिटल हस्ताक्षर को मान्यता देने की व्यापक व्यवस्था के अनुरूप भी है।
Why the other options are incorrect / बाकी विकल्प गलत क्यों हैं
-
Only paper-based records — incorrect, because BSA goes beyond paper documents.
केवल कागज़ आधारित अभिलेख — गलत, क्योंकि BSA का दायरा कागज़ी दस्तावेज़ों से आगे बढ़ाया गया है. -
Only certified public records — incorrect, because the scope is much wider.
केवल प्रमाणित लोक अभिलेख — गलत, क्योंकि इसका दायरा इससे कहीं अधिक व्यापक है. -
Oral testimonies transcribed manually — incorrect, because the question is specifically about expanding the meaning of documents.
मौखिक गवाही का लिखित रूप — गलत, क्योंकि प्रश्न विशेष रूप से दस्तावेज़ों के विस्तारित अर्थ के बारे में है.
Extra fact / अतिरिक्त तथ्य
Under BSA, electronic or digital records produced for the inspection of the Court are treated as documentary evidence.
BSA के तहत, न्यायालय के निरीक्षण हेतु प्रस्तुत इलेक्ट्रॉनिक या डिजिटल रिकॉर्ड को दस्तावेजी साक्ष्य माना जाता है।
