Indian democracy is under threat, senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said during a lecture at Cambridge University, claiming that several politicians are under surveillance. Gandhi made the comments during his lecture on “Learning to Listen in the 21st Century”. Gandhi alleged that the Israeli spyware, Pegasus, was installed on the phones of a large number of politicians, including him.
“Indian democracy is under attack. The institutional framework that is required for a democracy—Parliament, free press, the judiciary, just the idea of mobilisation
—are all getting constrained... There is also attack on minorities and press. “A large number of political leaders have Pegasus on their phones. I myself had Pegasus on my phone. I’ve been called by intelligence officers who say please be careful of what you say on the phone as we are recording the stuff,” the former Congress chief claimed.
