Commission examined a request that the Commission to provide a copy of the recording of a complainant’s hearing, which was conducted by Videoconference. While no decision on policy was taken on the issue, the Commission observed that such recording will entail arrangements for which we are not ready, and higher costs.

Recently our friend Karira (CK Jam) had posted a query on his forum wanting to know how my DDA hearing had been photographed. Upon enquiry I learnt that all the senior ICs now have NIC videoconferencing systems installed in their office which are "always On" and transmitting continuously back to NIC Bhawan for security reasons. In other words the chambers of the senior ICs are always bugged. Our old friends the "Chinese Hackers" know exactly what is going on even before parties do. It seems they have some very graphic videos (with Dolby Audio) of romps in a particular office :-) Sarbajit
