Democratic & national security institutions spied on using Pegasus: Congress

“How can the Modi govt think this is not an issue?” the Party tweeted about Pegasus scandal, using the hashtag #BJPDebateSeDaroMat while daring the BJP for debate over the scandal in the Parliament.



NEW DELHI — The Congress party on Saturday stated that the BJP-led Central government used the spyware Pegasus for spying on ‘almost all’ the democratic and national security institutions in the country.



“Almost every democratic & national security institution in the nation has been spied on using Pegasus spyware, how can the Modi govt think this is not an issue?” the Party tweeted, using the hashtag #BJPDebateSeDaroMat while daring the BJP for debate over the scandal in the Parliament.

“Everything that is an issue to the Indian people is a ‘non-issue’ to the Modi govt. And everything that is an issue to the Modi govt is causing issues for the Indian people,” the Party maintained.

Pegasus Spyware, developed by the Israeli firm NSO Group, is intended for use against terrorists and criminals, the Party said, adding that in India, civilians were subjected to spyware, but the Modi government seemed unconcerned.

It further accused, “Modi government spied on citizens instead of criminals, it was not done for the security of the country but to protect its politics. For the Modi government, politics is above the nation. This ambition of the Modi government is weighing heavily on the country.”

According to the Congress, the Pegasus issue may be unnecessary for the Modi government but the Pegasus scandal in which the judiciary, the Army, the opposition and journalists have been spied, such a case cannot be unnecessary.

“BJP will have to answer on the espionage case,” the Congress party demanded.

Lathi Charge: A legalised method of police brutality

"Every blow on our bodies this afternoon is like a nail driven into the coffin of British imperialism." These were the precise words of Sher-e-Punjab Lala Lajpat Rai when he got brutally " lathi-charged " by the law enforcers of Colonial India while he was protesting against the Simon Commission in October 1928.  Punjab Kesari Lajpat Rai eventually succumbed to his injuries, and his death gave off the spark for vengeance in the heart of numerous Indian revolutionaries. In December 1928, Shahid-e-Azam Bhagat Singh and his compatriot Shivam Rajguru assassinated the Lahore Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) John Saunders to avenge the murder of their mentor. "Lathi-Charge" has remained one of the most brutal and sensitive issues for Indians since the bygone days of the Indian National Movement. Thus, even after 75 years of liberation, India and her children continue to writhe under pain brought on by police brutality and paranoia. Both the Indian Penal

Hence, India is a fairly young country with a strong demographic dividend. However, the ambitions and dreams of millions of Indians lie stranded despite their ability and competence.

The problem of the youth, in essence, is the problem of the nation, and it is high time we illustrated the gr
