As of May 2022, over 4.7 crore cases are pending in courts across different levels of the judiciary. This has resulted in a ponderous burden on the Indian judiciary system. According to Experts the reason why we have this problem is due to lack of infrastructure in the Indian Judiciary System. With this study I build a machine learning model that can determine the applicable Indian Penal Code according to the description provided by the user. I have used two machine learning approaches, one vs rest and one vs one multi-class classification. The one vs rest classification using Logistic Regression has a 99% accuracy on training data.
