Act of tapping and recording private conversation on mobiles and landlines from an accessible close distance using imported recording instruments and devices installed in moving vehicles is not fair, said Mujtaba Farooq, Secretary Jamaat-e-Islami Hind. He strongly condemned electronic surveillance. He said it is unconstitutional, unethical and also contrary to the social norms prevailing in a civilised society. These devices of recording private conversation are the gifts Indian Government explored from Israel. It is learnt that the vehicles are particularly targeting Muslim concentrated localities in major cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad. He further said that such tapping amounts to electronic surveillance and it reflects Governments’ distrust of the Muslim community which is bound to aggravate alienation and community’s siege mentality.
