External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said at the regular media briefing in New Delhi that the ministry has taken up the matter of surveillance with the Chinese side."We have seen the media reports on this issue. MEA had accordingly taken up the matter with the Chinese side. The Chinese side has conveyed that the company is a private entity.
