Q
what?
A
Confessions to a police officer are inadmissible as evidence under the Indian Evidence Act (to protect people from coerced police confessions).
However, terrorism legislations such as TADA and POTA made confessions to the police admissible.
This is as long as it was made to an officer not lower than the rank of Superintendent of Police.
