Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday (April 4, 2026) alleged that the Modi government is putting the security of every Indian at risk by attempting to "cover up its own failures" and concealing the reality of foreign surveillance through Chinese cameras installed at vital locations.

"This is a deliberate conspiracy to keep India in the dark," he said in a post in Hindi on Facebook.

Mr. Gandhi said the government recently banned the public use of Chinese CCTV cameras.

"Yet, Chinese cameras remain installed inside government buildings. Banned Chinese apps are resurfacing under changed names. Foreign AI platforms are processing sensitive data. And the government has absolutely nothing to say about this," he said.
