DoT alone will not take call on Huawei: Telecom secretary

NEW DELHI: The department of telecom (DoT) will not decide on the business engagement of Chinese telecom gear maker Huawei in India but a holistic view will be taken by higher authorities in the government, a top official said on Thursday.
The DoT has set up a panel to examine issues related to Huawei’s participation in the Indian telecom network.
“We are expecting a recommendation of the committee. Once the recommendations of the committee come, these will be submitted to the government to take a call. It is not just going to be the decision of the DoT.
