Since the NSO Group's policy is that clients are confined to "vetted governments" only it suggests that the spyware was used by the GoI and not any other private body. Reputed agencies like Citizen Lab have found traces of the spyware on some of the devices that were attacked."The Rajya Sabha also got adjourned till 2 PM today. Before the Upper House adjourned, the report of the Standing Committee on Transport, Tourism, and Culture on the subject of "Functioning of Airports Authority of India" was tabled.Earlier today, both Houses were adjourned till 12 noon.Amidst the uproar created by Opposition parties in the Parliament on Friday, the Lower House of the Parliament was adjourned till 11 AM on August 2.
