Which section says that law enforcement agencies can tap phones for security reasons more than 72 hours without the permission of union home secretary or principal secretary (home) of state? What do u mean by inspector general rank officer? As this officer can give orders to do so.
But if they don’t get a nod form the top on the fourth day, they will have to destroy the call records within 48 hours of getting the response form the authority. But which authority? Which section says that they have to destroy the records within 48 hours if they don’t get the nod? Nod means the permission or approval?
Pls elaborate it & i have heard that there is a SC guidelines for taking the permission & each everything till destroying the call records SC has given the guidelines so can i have the guidelines.
Thanks
