Rajasthan: Post-mortem reports to go fully online from Feb 1

Rajasthan Police mandates online MLC and post-mortem reports via MedLEaPR software from Feb 2026, banning handwritten documents for transparency.

"strict accountability will be imposed - Rajasthan Police order"

Jaipur, Jan 20

In a major step towards making the police system paperless and transparent, the Rajasthan Police has decided to completely digitise the process of preparing Medical Legal Cases and Post-Mortem Reports.

Acting on the directions of the Rajasthan High Court, Jodhpur, handwritten MLC and PMR reports will be completely banned across the state from February 1, 2026.

Inspector General of Police (Crime) Param Jyoti said that in an important order dated November 17, 2025, the Rajasthan High Court clearly directed that all MLC and PMR procedures must be carried out exclusively through the MedLEaPR software and the Crime and Criminal Tracking Network & Systems (CCTNS).

Based on this order, detailed instructions have been issued to the Additional Director General of Police (Crime) and the Inspector General of Police, State Crime Records Bureau.

Under the new system, if any MLC or PMR is prepared manually after February 1, 2026, and the prescribed software is not used, strict accountability will be imposed.

The Station House Officer (SHO), Investigating Officer, and Superintendent of Police (SP) of the concerned district will be held personally responsible.

In the police commissionerates of Jaipur and Jodhpur, responsibility will extend to the Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) and the Commissioner of Police. As per instructions issued by the Police Headquarters (PHQ), all requests for MLC and PMR will now be generated exclusively through CCTNS.

The final reports prepared by medical officers will also be made available for download through the same system. This digital process is expected to save time, ensure transparency, and eliminate the possibility of manipulation or human interference in legal documentation.

Inspector General, State Crime Records Bureau, Ajay Pal Lamba, has directed all district superintendents of police and police commissioners to ensure strict and immediate compliance with these orders within their respective jurisdictions.

Finally! My uncle had to run around for weeks to get a simple post-mortem report after an accident. The manual process was so slow and opaque. This will save so much time and mental agony for grieving families. Good move.

The intention is good, but I'm skeptical about the implementation. Do all police stations and hospitals in rural Rajasthan have the infrastructure and trained staff for this? Hope they provide proper training before the deadline.

Holding SHOs and SPs personally responsible is the key here. Without strict accountability, such orders often remain on paper. This could be a model for police reforms across India if it works well.

Digitization is the way forward. This will cut down so much red tape and "file movement" time. Hope the MedLEaPR software is user-friendly and doesn't crash. The success depends on the tech being robust.

A much-needed reform. The old system was prone to errors and manipulation, especially in sensitive cases. Making reports downloadable directly is a great feature for families and lawyers. Hope it brings more trust in the system.
