BJP, Cong trade barbs over Rahul's Pegasus remarks at Cambridge University

'Just because your are not...': BJP attacks Rahul over Pegasus remarks at Cambridge; Cong hits back

Patra questioned if Gandhi was working as an agent on the payroll of an agency to bring down India.

The BJP sharpened its attack on Rahul Gandhi on Saturday, accusing the Congress leader of speaking against India in a foreign country and making such allegations about the conditions in the country which even Pakistan does not dare to do
While the whole world is using good words to describe India, its main opposition leader is claiming on foreign soil that the country has been destroyed and democracy is no longer there while the judiciary and the media are in a bad shape, BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra told reporters.
Patra questioned if Gandhi was working as an agent on the payroll of an agency to bring down India.
Following BJP's attack, the Congress hit back at the BJP for criticising Rahul Gandhi's remarks at the Cambridge University, saying the ruling party's statements either stem from ignorance or from "completely contrived politics" both of which have no place in a democracy.
Addressing a press conference at the AICC headquarters in New Delhi, Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate said Gandhi is a leading member of India's politics and as a member of a party which was in power earlier as well as a leading member of the Opposition, he has consistently stood for and espoused the causes of the common man.

Poland's most powerful politician has acknowledged that the country bought advanced spyware from the Israeli surveillance software maker NSO Group, but denied that it was being used to target his political opponents.
Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the leader of Poland's ruling conservative party, Law and Justice, said in an interview that the software, Pegasus, is now being used by secret services in many countries to combat crime and corruption. He noted that Pegasus represents a technological advancement over earlier monitoring systems, which did not allow the services to monitor encrypted messages.
“It would be bad if the Polish services did not have this type of tool,” Kaczynski said in an interview to be published in the Monday edition of the weekly “Sieci," excerpts of which were published Friday by the wPolityce.pl news portal.
The interview follows exclusive reports by The Associated Press that Citizen Lab, a cyber watchdog group at the University of Toronto, found that three Polish government critics were hacked with NSO's Pegasus spyware.
On Thursday, Amnesty International independently verified the finding by Citizen Lab that Sen. Krzysztof Brejza had been hacked multiple times in 2019 when he was running the opposition's parliamentary election campaign. Text messages stolen from Brejza's phone were doctored and aired by state-controlled TV as part of a smear campaign in the heat of the race, which the populist ruling party went on to narrowly win.
Brejza now maintains that the election was not fair since the ruling party would have had access to his campaign's tactical thinking and plans.
The revelations have rocked Poland, drawing comparisons to the 1970s Watergate scandal in the United States and eliciting calls for an investigative commission in parliament.
Kaczynski said he sees no reason to set up such a commission, and he denied that the surveillance played any role in the outcome of the 2019 elections.
“There is nothing here, no fact, except the hysteria of the opposition. There is no Pegasus case, no surveillance,” Kaczynski said. “No Pegasus, no services, no secretly obtained information played any role in the 2019 election campaign. They lost because they lost. They shouldn't look for such excuses today.” The other two Polish targets confirmed by Citizen Lab were Roman Giertych, a lawyer who represents opposition politicians in a number of politically sensitive cases, and Ewa Wrzosek, an independent-minded prosecutor.
Kaczynski's allies had previously denied that Poland purchased and used Pegasus.
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki called the Citizen Lab-AP findings “fake news” and suggested a foreign intelligence service could have done the spying — an idea dismissed by critics who said no other government would have any interest in the three Polish targets.
Deputy Defense Minister Wojciech Skurkiewicz in late December said “the Pegasus system is not in the possession of the Polish services. It is not used to track or surveil anyone in our country." Media reports say Poland purchased Pegasus in 2017, using money from the so-called Justice Fund, which is meant to help the victims of crimes and rehabilitate criminals. According to investigations by the TVN broadcaster and Gazeta Wyborcza daily, it is used by the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau, a special service created to combat corruption in public life that is under the political control of the ruling party.
“The public money was spent on an important public purpose, related to the fight against crime and the protection of citizens,” Kaczynski said.
Dozens of high-profile cases of Pegasus abuse have been uncovered since 2015, many by a global media consortium last year, with the NSO Group malware employed to eavesdrop on journalists, politicians, diplomats, lawyers and human rights activists from the Middle East to Mexico.
The Polish hacks are considered particularly egregious because they occurred not in a repressive autocracy but in a European Union member state.

Either PM or Home Minister ordered Pegasus snooping: Rahul Gandhi on SC probe

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi attacked Prime Minister Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah after SC ordered an independent probe into Pegasus snooping row. Here are key takeaways from his press conference.

Rahul&nbsp; welcomed that the Supreme Court formed a panel to look into the allegations of Pegasus spyware. He also said that the product was either bought by the Prime Minister or the Union home minister.

Rahul Gandhi also claimed that the government in Karnataka was toppled using Pegasus. &ldquo;This is a deeper problem. It is one thing if you are using Pegasus for tackling terrorism or national security. That is completely a different issue but if the Prime Minister is using it as a personal tool and the data is arriving on the PM's desk, then that is totally criminal,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/news-guru-pegasus-project-the-politics-of-surveillance-1627050711354">Also Watch:&nbsp;News Guru | Pegasus Project &amp; the politics of surveillance</a>
At a press conference here, Gandhi alleged that only the prime minister or the home minister could have ordered the use of Pegasus spyware.
During the last Parliament session, the Opposition had jointly taken up the issue and had stalled proceedings demanding a probe, he recalled.
"We were asking three basic questions -- who authorised Pegasus, which agency, which person authorised Pegasus as we all know Pegasus cannot be bought by a private individual, it has to be bought by a government; second question was who was it used against; final thing was, did any other country have access to information of our people," the former Congress chief said.
Asserting that alleged snooping using Pegasus is an "attempt to crush Indian democracy", Gandhi said it is a "big step that the Supreme Court has said that they are going to look into this matter. I am confident that we will get the truth out of this".
"We are quite happy that the Supreme Court has accepted to look into this. There is the institution of Parliament where we will raise this again and we will try to have a debate in Parliament. I am sure the BJP will not like that debate so they will make sure that debate is stalled but we will try to hold that debate," he said.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday appointed a three-member panel of cyber experts to probe the alleged use of Israeli spyware Pegasus for surveillance of certain people in India, saying every citizen needs protection against privacy violation and mere invocation of "national security by State" does not render the court a "mute spectator".
Finding material that "prima facie merits consideration", a bench comprising Chief Justice N V Ramana and Justices Surya Kant and Hima Kohli declined the Centre's plea to appoint an expert panel on its own, saying such a course would violate settled judicial principle against bias.

Amid the ongoing stalemate in Parliament during the Monsoon session, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has invited leaders of opposition parties to a breakfast meeting at the Constitution Club on Tuesday to chalk out a joint strategy on the Pegasus snooping issue.
Sources told PTI&nbsp;that&nbsp;the meeting is being held to forge unity among the opposition ranks on Pegasus snooping issue.
All opposition MPs and floor leaders of various parties have been invited for the meeting.
The opposition has been demanding a discussion in Parliament on the Pegasus row and its leaders have been giving adjournment notices everyday.
The Modi government has been saying that the opposition is creating a "non-issue" and the IT minister has already given a reply in both Houses of Parliament.
The sources told PTI added that an invite has also been sent to Trinamool Congress, which has been skipping all meetings convened by Rahul Gandhi so far.&nbsp;
