Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Monday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah should clarify on the issue of alleged snooping of several people, including journalists, through the Israeli spyware Pegasus.

This shows the country's "government and administration is weak", Raut told reporters in New Delhi. "There is an atmosphere of fear among people. The PM and Home Minister should address the issue and clarify," the Rajya Sabha member said.
