Union minister Chandrasekhar calls report related to Apple hack warnings fully embellished

New Delhi, 29/12: Union Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar on Thursday refuted a report by a US daily, which claimed Indian authorities had demanded that technology major Apple help in softening the political impact of hack warnings issued in October.

The Minister of State for IT and Electronics described the report as “half facts, fully embellished”, and “creative imagination” and pointed out that it left out Apple’s own response on October 31, the day when threat notifications were issued to users.
