Rahul Gandhi, IT Minister Named: Who Ordered India's Biggest Phone Hack?

On day two of the big revelations on the Pegasus phone tap, the report names Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, the new IT Minister, Ashwini Vaishnaw, poll strategist Prashant Kishor and many others, including constitutional authorities, such as former Election Commissioner Ashok Lavasa. The investigation by a consortium of media organisations, including The Wire, says that mobile phone accounts of these people were listed as potential targets by an official client of an Israeli surveillance technology vendor, and Pegasus spyware may have been used to hack into their phones. The government says this is a conspiracy, but analysts insist that the phone taps constitute the biggest, most systemic effort at surveillance of citizens, destroying the right to privacy.
