"The modern technology has taken us back to slavery," Mr Raut said in his weekly column ''Rokhthok'' in the Sena mouthpiece Saamana. He said the Pegasus case is "no different from the atomic bomb attack on Hiroshima". "People died in Hiroshima, while in the Pegasus case, it led to the death of freedom," he claimed. As per news report of NDTV, he said politicians, industrialists and social activists fear they are being spied upon, and even the judiciary and media are under the same pressure.
