Scorpene data leak News
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday raised with French President Francois Hollande the leak of confidential data on the Indian Scorpene Class submarines being built in Mumbai in collaboration with French defence company DCNS on the sidelines of the G20 Summit here.
Navy Chief Sunil Lanba on Monday termed the Scorpene data leak as 'a matter of serious concern'.
Parrikar, on Friday had said the leaked documents do not contain information on the weapons systems.
The leaked data on Indian Scorpene submarines was given by a "whistleblower" to The Australian, the newspaper said in a report, adding that the "whistleblower" would hand over the disk to the "government" on Monday.
Parrikar said that he has instructed the navy to find out areas of concerns based on inputs and take appropriate steps to address it.
