India block hardware sales from Huawei, ZTE
India's government has ordered Huawei and ZTE from selling network hardware to domestic phone providers because it fears for its security, according to a Friday report. Two sources who wanted to remain unidentified due to the confidential nature of a leak said that Sistema Shyam Teleservices didn't get permission to buy telecom gear from the Chinese manufacturer. Similar requests from at least three other Indian phone carriers were denied as well.
