Congress MLA M.B. Patil has mentioned that his phone call historical past data is being collected and misused by some miscreants and political adversaries. He has mentioned that miscreants are gathering call report data from his phone and the telephones of his members of the family and a detailed aide.
In a grievance to Director-General and Inspector-General of Police Praveen Sood, Mr. Patil mentioned that data is being collected from his cellular phone, his spouse Asha Patil, son B.M. Patil, brother Sunilgouda Patil and BLDE Society Public Relation Officer Mahantesh Biradar.
He requested the police to see that nobody obtains such call historical past data. “Kindly issue instructions to the authorities concerned in private and public companies [in the matter],” he requested Mr. Sood. He warned that the Police Department shall be held accountable if there may be leakage of data in future.
“It has come to my knowledge that some persons are collecting data from districts like Kalaburagi, Belagavi, Bagalkot and other districts. This may to be avoid the suspicion that will arise if such data is collected from Vijayapura,” he mentioned.
“Such acts are unpardonable offences. Stealing data amounts to invasion of privacy of my family members and myself. Some miscreants engage in such shameless acts just before elections. But it is unbecoming of anyone,” he mentioned.
