The sophistication of science and technologies has profoundly altered the way of social life. This also led to a paradigm shift in the methodology of taking preventive measures for conforming security, both nationally and transnationally throughout the world. The newly adopted Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Act- 2006 [Act No. 39 of 2006] has raised new controversies relating to constitutional and privacy issues in Bangladesh by allowing the law enforcement agents to impose electronic monitoring as well as other types of technologicallyaided surveillance software for the purpose of intruding conversations of the citizens of Bangladesh on the whole. This processing of personal information by dint of wiretapping by the security officers intersects with a very basic notion of individuals‟ data privacy, „protection of home and correspondence‟ and „Protection of right to life and personal liberty‟ which were protected by the Constitution of Bangladesh to some extent. With latest legislative and judicial supports thrown on the right to data privacy of individuals, questions now emerge on whether this support to privacy right will be short-lived by the newly-passed ICT law, which legally introduce the power of electronic surveillance in Bangladesh? This paper seeks to initially explore this intersection and to outline the roadmap for better legal development in Bangladesh.

The United Nations (UN) is an international organization whose aims are to facilitate cooperation in international law, security, economic development, social progress, human rights, and achievement of world peace. The UN was founded in 1945 after World War II to replace the League of Nations to stop wars among countries, and to provide a platform for dialogue. The organization has six principal organs: The General Assembly (the main deliberative assembly); the Security Council (for deciding certain resolutions for peace and security); the Economic and Social Council (for assisting in promoting international economic and social cooperation and development); the Secretariat (for providing studies, information, and facilities needed by the UN); the International Court of Justice (the primary judicial organ); and the United Nations Trusteeship Council. Security Council, the most important organ contains five permanent and ten non-permanent members. The five permanent members namely USA, UK, Russia, China, France possess the veto power as to the question of international peace and security. In this study it is tried to explore the rationale of emergence of new permanent member of UNO. In addition, it searches also obstacles/challenges which shall have to be faced as the permanent states are oriented with veto power and enjoying other privileges.
