Rahul Gandhi's demand for a court-monitored inquiry into snooping allegations linked to the Pegasus spyware reports was rejected today by the government. Rahul Gandhi accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah of using the Pegasus spyware against India and its institution. "The only word for this is treason," the Congress leader said, demanding a Supreme Court monitored probe. He also demanded the resignation of the Home Minister. Gandhi alleged that all his phones were tapped and that his friends were also informed by those in intelligence that this is being done. The Congress leader was speaking near parliament, where his party and other opposition parties have raised loud protests on the "snooping" scandal.
