India\`s internal and external intelligence agencies- the Intelligence Bureau and the Research and Analysis Wing, respectively- Carry out numerous operations ranging from counter-terrorism and tackling separatist movements to critical infrastructure protection: all without any statutory charter in place empowering them to do so. In addition, we have the national Technical Research Organization, modeled on the USA\`s National Security Agency, set up as an intelligence gathering agency in 2004. With the rising threat to national security comes the need for the strongest, most efficient intelligence framework possible- provided it remains grounded in a sphere of legality. Taking lapses of security, efficiency, and privacy as points of concern, this monograph begins by making a case for crafting an oversight framework for India\`s intelligence agencies.
