NEW DELHI (The Thursday Times) — Digital huqooq ki tanzeem Internet Freedom Foundation ki tehqiqat ke mutabiq Bharat ke wazir-e-dakhla Amit Shah ne mulk ke Make in India khareedari qawaid mein aisi chhoot ki manzoori di jis se wafaqi idare ghair mulki phone cracking aur forensic aalat khareed sakay, jin mein Israeli company Cellebrite ki masnoo'aat bhi shamil hain.
Tanzeem ka kehna hai ke wazarat-e-dakhla ke 7 January ke ek khat mein National Forensic Sciences University aur mulk ki markazi forensic laboratories ke liye 422 forensic ashya par ek saala chhoot ki Shah ki manzoori darj hai. Tanzeem ke hisaab se in mein se 118 digital forensic aalat hain, jin mein Cellebrite ki teen masnoo'aat bhi hain jin ki qeemat taqriban 6 crore se saarhe 7 crore Bharati rupay fi kas darj hai.
20 January ke ek doosre khat mein National Investigation Agency ko teen saala license par Cellebrite ka Premium tool khareedne ke liye yak waqti chhoot darj hai. Tanzeem ke mutabiq sarkari khareedari portal par agency ki boli mein Shah ko qaida khatam karne wali authority ke taur par namzad kiya gaya, aur theka 5 crore Bharati rupay se kuch kam mein diya gaya.
Tahaffuzat par sawalat
Khareedari ke hukm name ke tehat sarkari khareedaron ko Bharat mein bani masnoo'aat ko tarjeeh deni hoti hai jab tak mutaliqa wazir chhoot ki manzoori na de. Agency ne wajah yeh batai ke koi aur company isi naam aur khususiyat ka software nahin banati. Tanzeem ka kehna hai ke record mein aisa kuch nahin jis se zahir ho ke kisi ne jaancha ho ke koi Bharati product yehi kaam kar sakti hai ya nahin.
Tanzeem ke mutabiq boliyon ke sath munsalik khususiyat mein aise aalat mangay gaye hain jo zabt shuda phones ya computers mein mehfooz login tokens istemal kar ke messaging apps se le kar dating platforms tak 100 se zaid cloud services tak rasai hasil kar sakein. Tanzeem ne likha: “Bharat mein kisi shakhs ke phone se forensic tareeqe se data nikalne ke liye koi qanoon, qaida ya shaya shuda tareeqa-e-kaar mojood nahin.”
Tanzeem ne kaha ke us ne wazir ka apna note nahin dekha aur use Right to Information Act ke tehat talab kiya hai. Us ka bayan wazarat ke khutoot aur idaron ki shaya shuda boliyon par mabni hai.
Ek alag report ke mutabiq opposition jamaat Congress ki hukoomat wali riyaston, jin mein Karnataka, Himachal Pradesh, aur Kerala shamil hain, ne bhi isi tarah ke phone data nikalne wale aalat khareede hain.
Woh khala jis ki nishandahi Supreme Court kar chuki hai
Bharat ki Supreme Court digital aalat ki zabti se mutaliq ek muqadma sun rahi hai. November 2023 mein judges ne wafaqi hukoomat se kaha tha ke us ke paas “behtar rehnuma usool hone chahiyein”, aur hukoomat ne kaha tha ke qawaid banne tak us ke idare Central Bureau of Investigation ke crime manual par amal karenge.
Insani huqooq ki tanzeemon ne Serbia aur Kenya samet kai mumalik mein sahafiyon aur karkunon ke khilaf Cellebrite ke aalat ke istemal ko dastavezi shakl di hai. Wazarat-e-dakhla ne in nataij par awami taur par koi jawab nahin diya.
