IndiaTimes Tuesday, 16 January 2024
On Tuesday, a bench of Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud, and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra sought response from government on a PIL filed by advocate Kishan Chand Jain, seeking use of DNA technology to profile unidentified bodies to help relatives identify their near and dear ones who had gone missing. Government did introduce a bill on use of DNA technology in 2018 and it was passed by the Lok Sabha. However, it lapsed in 2019 and a new bill on this subject was re-introduced in July 2019.
