How to Obtain CCTV Footage
from a Police Station

Need CCTV footage for legal or personal purposes? Follow this detailed guide for the most effective methods.

Step 1: File an RTI Application

Filing a Right to Information (RTI) application is the first step to obtaining CCTV footage. Follow these steps:

• Draft an RTI application requesting CCTV footage.
• Submit it to the Public Information Officer (PIO).
• Wait for 30 days for a response.

Note: Most RTI requests are denied due to privacy or security concerns. In such cases, you must file an appeal with higher authorities.

Step 2: Application to the Area Magistrate

The best and most reliable way to get CCTV footage is by filing an application with the Area Magistrate:

• Draft a formal application stating the need for CCTV footage.
• Submit it to the Magistrate’s court.
• The Magistrate can issue a direct order to the police station.

If the SHO denies:

• The Magistrate can issue a show-cause notice to the SHO.
• Initiate contempt proceedings.
• Direct higher authorities to enforce the order.
