CAIT seeks barring Huawei, ZTE from India's 5G plans

The Confederation of All India Traders (CAIT) on Tuesday wrote to Union Minister for Communications Ravi Shankar Prasad seeking a ban on Chinese technology companies Huawei and ZTE from the 5G network rollout in India.

 

The traders' body has been at the forefront of the protests against any form of participation of Chinese companies in the Indian market, ranging from retail to technology, and has been running a campaign for the same, post the border skirmish in Ladakh in which around 20 Indian soldiers were killed.

 

A government panel is already looking at whether the two Chinese companies should be allowed in the much anticipated 5G trials in the country and according to people in the know the committee has suggested not allowing the Chinese firms in the trials.
