Privacy Concerns Led to Laptop Import Decision: Minister Piyush Goyal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

He emphasized the gravity of the issue, explaining that even Tesla cars are prohibited from being near Chinese President Xi Jinping due to security awareness. He stated that India needs to protect itself from countries hostile to its interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As per Goyal, \u201cThis situation involves a critical security concern. Even a Tesla car is prohibited from coming near locations where Xi Jinping, the President of China, is present. This underscores their awareness of security risks, even concerning a car’s proximity to the Chinese premier. India also needs to safeguard itself from nations that harbor hostility towards us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During a book launch event for journalist Nalin Mehta, Goyal remarked that the current government is open and responsive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goyal acknowledged laptops’ significance and their potential for leaking confidential information. He narrated an incident where his television unexpectedly switched to HDMI 1 port and expressed concern about his phone going into an emergency mode during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goyal Discussed ONDC Platforms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discussing the ONDC platform, Goyal revealed direct communication with the owners of three major e-commerce companies to understand their progress, noting it’s currently in a beta testing phase processing around 100,000 transactions daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said, \u201cSome people question why Amazon, Flipkart, Tatas, Airtel, Reliance, and others are included in ONDC if it’s intended for small retailers. My belief is that we’re attempting to make it a widespread success. We need both large and small entities to coexist. This will provide consumers with choices.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He defended the inclusion of Amazon, Flipkart, Tatas, Airtel, Reliance, and others on ONDC, stating that it aims for widespread success by accommodating both large and small entities to offer choices to consumers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
