Remission of sentences promotes the principles of reform and rehabilitation in the criminal justice system.
It encourages convicts to reform and reintegrate into society after serving a portion of their sentences.
Granting remission to eligible convicts helps in reducing overcrowding in prisons, which is a major concern globally.
It reflects a humane approach towards offenders, acknowledging their potential for change and giving them a chance to make amends.
The Supreme Court's emphasis on considering remission without waiting for applications ensures that convicts are not deprived of this opportunity due to administrative delays or oversight.
