In Manu Sharma, in the context of policy diaries, this court noted that “the purpose and the object seems to be quite clear that there should be fairness in investigation, transparency and a record should be maintained to ensure a proper investigation”.

(Shri) Bhagwan Singh And Ors. vs The State Of Bihar on 13 May, 1993

In the case of Mukund Lal v. Union of India and Anr. , their Lordships have held at page 146 in ...The Legislature has reposed complete trust in the Court which is conducting the inquiry or the trial. It had empowered the Court to call for any such relevant case diary, If there is any inconsistency or contradiction arising in the context of the case diary the Court can use the entries for the purpose of contradicting the Police Officer as provided in Sub-section (3) of Section 172 of the Cr. P.C. Ultimately there can be no better custodian or guardian of the interest of justice than the court trying the case. No court will deny to itself the power to make use of the entries in the diary to the advantage of the accused by contradicting the police officer with reference to the contents of the diaries. In view of this safeguard, the charge of unreasonableness, or arbitrariness cannot stand scrutiny. The petitioners claim an unfettered right to make roving inspection of the entries in the case diary regardless of whether these entries are used by the police officer concerned to refresh his memory or regardless of the fact whether the Court has used these entries for purpose of contradicting such police officer. It cannot be said that unless such unfettered right is conferred and recognised, the embargo engrafted in Sub-section (3) of Section 172 of the Cr. P. C. would fail to meet the test of reasonableness. For instance in the case diary there might be a note as regards the identity of the informant who gave some information which resulted h investigation into a particular aspect.
