by NTOI Web Desk

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a petition in connection with the issue whether recording a wife’s telephonic conversation, in the absence of her knowledge, is violation of her privacy.

The top court was hearing an appeal filed by a man challenging the single bench order of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, in December last year. After hearing brief arguments in the matter on January 12, a bench comprising Justices Vineet Saran and B.V. Nagarathna issued notice.

The high court order had come on a plea filed by a woman, who challenged a Bathinda family court order passed in 2020, allowing her estranged husband to prove a CD in connection with the recorded conversations between them, subject to the correctness of it.
