Former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi attacked the Narendra Modi government during his recent lecture at Cambridge University, alleging that several Indian politicians, including himself, were under surveillance using Pegasus spyware.
In a lecture titled ‘Learning to Listen in the 21st Century’, Gandhi was addressing MBA students at the Cambridge Judge Business School in the UK on 28 February.
Gandhi accused the Union government for attacking the basic structure of Indian democracy.
“Indian democracy is under pressure and under attack. The institutional framework which is required for a democracy … the Parliament, free press, the judiciary, just the idea of mobilisation — these are all getting constrained. We are facing an attack on the basic structure of democracy,” Rahul Gandhi said.
