Huawei Devices May Be Used For Spying Purposes In India

Raising national security concerns, an RSS-affiliate Sunday demanded that telecommunications be declared a critical and strategic infrastructure sector disallowing foreign firms, especially Chinese companies, to enter. The Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM) said India's telecommunications network should be fully indigenised and reserved for domestic companies on security grounds."Telecommunications must be declared a critical and strategic infrastructure vital to India's security. Once this is done, the bans on imports cannot be challenged at the WTO," SJM national co-convener Ashwani Mahajan told PTI.
