my gmail id showed an unusual activity. its ip number traced it to uttar pradesh. which was clearly not my ip address. also an email was sent from that particular ip at that time which was stored in my drafts to a friend of mine. my id contained few of my personal data which i would not like to be shared. can i take a legal action against that particular person? i have the ip address as that is displayed by gmail. what procedures should i follow? please help. thank you

Yes. You can take a legal action against such person. Lodge police complaint, it comes under cyber crime.

lodge a complaint with the cyber cell of the police along with necessary evidence like the ip no.of the computer.
it would be very difficult to trace the culprit as most probably,the computer must be of a public cyber cafe.
nowadays,cycber care are required to keep a log book of customers.as such you may have some hope.try it.

Why e-mail even mobile phone is blocked without any reasons. Yes, Regulation exist backed with police power, but those rituals is time consuming and at times creates more problems like Mahatma Gandhi story of rearing a Cow.
