Objective of the present study was to find out importance of forensic science
from the point of view of the investigating officers i.e., police. The police officers
who are involved in the work of crime investigation in the city of Nagpur,
Maharashtra, India were selected as a sample of the study. The data was collected
by personally visiting randomly selected police stations and distributing the
questionnaire to the investigating officers there at. In all total 152 participants
