It’s treason, no other word for this: Rahul Gandhi on Pegasus project

NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday alleged that the Prime Minister and home minister have used Pegasus spyware against the Indian state and against our institutions.

“They have used it politically, they’ve used it in Karnataka, they’ve used it to scuttle probes, they’ve used it against the Supreme Court, they have used it against all the institutions of this country. The only word for this is treason. There is no other word for this,” Rahul Gandhi told reporters outside Parliament.

He further said, “My phone was tapped. It’s not a matter of Rahul Gandhi’s privacy. I’m an opposition leader, I raise the voices of people.
