500 activists, writers, lawyers, etc., write to the Chief Justice of India – demand action on the Pegasus issue.

The phones of many important political leaders, activists, etc., have been hacked and spied using the Pegasus spyware. Known sources say that, the cost for hacking one phone, using the Pegasus spyware, comes to Rs.1.5 crore. Then, a question arises naturally, who has spent such a huge money to snoop on the phones of a large number of persons. The opposition has accused the government for the spying, using the Pegasus spyware. On the other hand, the government maintains a silence. It has neither admitted nor denied, that it used the Pegasus spyware to snoop phones. Under these circumstances, 500 eminent activists, writers, lawyers, etc., have written to the Chief Justice of India and have demanded action on the Pegasus issue.
