S. 188 crpc:prior permission of central government

(Querist) 27 June 2012 This query is : Resolved 
It is not clear from which Ministry of the Central Government (or its section/department) the prior permission to prosecute an offence covered by S. 188 CrPC should be obtained. Neither Thota Venkateswrlu case (2012) nor any other source gives a clue. Can somebody please throw light?
SAINATH DEVALLA (Expert) 27 June 2012
Dr.Rao,
The permission has to be granted by the General Administration Dept. of the Ministry of Home Afairs.
Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 27 June 2012
Obviously it si MHA.

I think it is the ministry under which the govt. servant is working. e.g. the labour ministry/department if the officer is working in Directorate General Employment and Training.
Dr V. Nageswara Rao (Querist) 01 July 2012
Thanks Mr Sainath, you are right. I checked with the Ministry also.
