Urging Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene, the RSS-affiliated Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM) said that Huawei should not be allocated airwaves for 5G network trials to ensure that India’s security interests are not compromised. In a letter to Modi, the outfit claimed that there are evidences that lead to suspicion of Chinese firms indulging in exfiltrating sensitive information from, devices and equipment that it exports. SJM’s co-convener Ashwani Mahajan said the organisation has made representations to the DoT cautioning and alerting it of “various threats Huawei brings in”.
