Today, i.e. July 1, 2024, is a very special day for India because from today three new laws have come into force in the country. From now on, the Indian Justice Code will be known in place of IPC, the Indian Civil Defense Code in place of CrPC, and the Indian Evidence Act in place of IEA. Not only this, but from now on, if something wrong has happened to you, then as a victim, if you do not want to go to the police station, you can register an FIR sitting at home. For this, you can use electronic means which include SMS, email, or the official website of the police. So let's know how you can get an e-FIR done sitting at home.
