* Only about half of the states have made any effort to reduce vacancies in police, judiciary and prisons
* The legal aid system mandates that 80% of the Indian population is eligible to avail free legal services, says the report

NEW DELHI:
The first comprehensive analysis of India’s manpower and capacity for justice delivery has painted a bleak picture of the ecosystem in terms of its various elements —police, prisons and judiciary.

The country’s capacity to deliver justice has serious deficits with under-capacity and gender imbalance plaguing these three pillars and a funding crunch affecting state services like free legal aid, according to a ranking of states based on official data compiled by Tata Trusts and various NGOs. Law and order is a state subject.

Only about half of the 29 states (pre-J&K reorganization) have made any effort to reduce vacancies in police, judiciary and prisons over a five year period, the report said, on the basis of trends in human resources, workload, diversity and infrastructure using publicly available data and information obtained under the Right to Information Act.
