Stepping up surveillance on mobile phone networks, the government said on Monday it plans to set up a Centre for Communication Security Research and Monitoring to help security agencies intercept and analyse call details.
Government proposes to set up such a centre and intends to keep a copy of select call data records for its use, Minister of State for IT and Communication Jyotiraditya Scindia informed Lok Sabha in a written reply.
"The Centre will provide mandatory access to Law Enforcement agencies for intercepting, monitoring and analysing the activities of required customers and their social networking, both proactively online and through post analysis of information like CDRs."
Complete CDRs are already being maintained
