Hikvision is central to China’s ambitions to become the world’s leading supplier of surveillance systems. And it has cleverly projected itself as part of Make in India initiative.
Israel's response to Iran's retaliatory attack was relatively small and also downplayed by Tehran. But there are factors that could jeopardise this perceived reprieve.
The 125 APAs include 86 Unilateral APAs (UAPAs) and 39 Bilateral APAs (BAPAs). The total number of APAs since the start of the APA programme has risen to 641, with 506 UAPAs and 135 BAPAs.
Check out Methodex Indian competition to Hikvision they are present some prestigious bank and defense establishments. Govt should incentivise by giving attractive GST import duty on foreign brand to be made 100%
Guys check on Methodex a make in india initiative and they have CCTV as part of security surveillance offering. They are present in some of the major Banks and some defense establishments. Govt should promote.
Chinese have alternatives whereas we depend on US from social media to E-mails thats the strength we as Indians work for US Company’s .If US could give at the cost which china offer’s this issue of security eve’s dropping wouldn’t be there .One thing can you assure if we buy US product they will not do the same as China collecting info about us .Hence request Modiji to increase the dependency upon ourselves instead of going to others Why depend on other countries for IT related stuff when Indian’s are used by US for their benefit we as a IT Brain is used by others like US & other countries,what is alternative to whatsup, facebook,gmail etc… The chinese makes the difference here they can beat US by not depending on their apps whereas we depend on US.. I think with Modiji’s help & more support to industries we can be independent like China , not supporting China here but their fight in business dictated by US by tax enhancement
The most urgent and security of India related
Issue. The author has right fully laid bare the threat india faces. As common proud citizens, we urge our govt to Rectify this threat of Hikvision surveillance system at our security institutions and other nation building departments. This is the priority after ban on Chinese apps.
You claim to be a security expert the you should know it is not the camera it is where the data is stored. Data is stored locally not even on networks . I have hikvision camera in my house and DVR is in my bedroom. We know you are Modi haters and India bashers, but for god sake show some journalistic values and stop confusing people by writing baseless articles.
Jingoist articles are floating around without any understanding of the matter. No wonder India is still lagging behind other nations.
Exploiting their technology for our growth is what we should mainly do. Keeping away Chinese inexpensive mass produced products are going to negatively affect our economy.
If we’re banning products without replacement that’ll be shoot in our own foot.
Let’s consider this surveillance sector, if the cheap surveillance systems are unavailable to the public they’ll quit using such systems as a whole. Result would be lack of surveillance, and lack of evidences of crimes. Needless to say the small Indian surveillance companies that’ll run out of business.
The enmity of USA and China is no secret. Why can’t USA “ban” every chinese product? Think!
No new buy of chinese goods including surveillance equipment by Govt and public is the need of the hour and future.
Public and private companies are required to be geared up for R&D and mass production. Companies such as ECIL should be made accountable to meet the challenge.
Immediate ban on chinese goods made out of paper, rubber, plastic, metal, wood (which were till recently manufactured in India).
Companies such BEL, ECIL, CEL and state companies such as UPTRON, WEBEL, KELTRON (which produced semiconductors once but now dead) should be revived and given targets.
Companies currently ‘manufacturing’ mobile sets and other semiconductor based equipments are actually assembling and marketing as ‘Make in India’. These companies are required to be forced either to make in India or shut the shop. They should be held accountable for their past bluffing.
There will be no actual progress until we ourself make semiconductor devices since every product has brain of semiconductor in it.
But no new buy of chinese goods and services and also no buy from companies in which chinese have stakes.
The author’s suggestion is very appropriate and timely. There are thousands of Entrepreneurs of Indian origin all over the world engaged in IT, AI and Surveillance technologies. Let’s harness their talents, enterprise and patriotism and carefully cut all the conduits that siphon off profit, or even a part of it, to China.
A welcome article showing concern for national security in theprint. But one thing is not understandable why this article appears after Modi Government bans some apps. All our intellectuals should come out and spell out what we as a nation need to do to meet threats from China or any other enemy country. Most of Our journalists working in news media can do is -to churn out stories either in favour of their political sponsors or write against rivals of their political sponsors . Many of them are ghost writers.
The war against China is not going to be one that one — being fought by our armed forces only. It is and has to be multidimensional . It has to be on economic front,. We need to produce at home what we lazily have been importing from China. It has to be on digital front where there is not much backwardness in our talent , knowledge , experience and resources. All that needed is— a clear understanding that China will never allow India to rise to level ,where , it ,– not to speak of surpassing , even it matches the level of growth equal to that of China.
The answer lies in that ‘The Print’ is a Congress mouthpiece and paid and have no journalist with any credit.
Some other things that need attention along with this:
– Harmony OS should be categorically banned and should not be allowed to launch in India
– AliExpress shopping app, similar to Club Factory, Romwe and Shein
– bloatware that comes pre-installed with the OS in Xiaomi, RealMe, Oppo, Vivo and OnePlus phones. They should be forced to use stock android. The bloatware is a serious security risk and cannot even be disabled without rooting the phone.
The government should also think to banning TCL and Hisense brands in India, as they are owned by the PRC government..
Other than TCL the Modi government should ban TCL, Hisense TV and smartphones in India. They are owned by Chinese government ..

Concerned about national security? .. OK let US supply you and wait to see
A very well written article with a serious truth. Time to ban some Chinese hardware too like Hikvision, Xiaomi phones.

Surely Modi ji need to do more for the safety and security of India. May be we can expect/hope some more good steps in coming days.
Thanks to bringing Hikvision name to my notice
