The NTRO is a tactical intelligence gathering agency that relies on technology 
for collection of information for securing the country’s security interests, 
including threats to critical infrastructure and reports directly to the Prime 
Minister’s Office.

The plan, sources said, is to put in place a group of hackers with special 
emphasis on countering the threats emanating from Chinese hackers.

Sources remained tightlipped about the exact number of hackers appointed but 
said few of them have been enrolled and others are set to get on board in the 
near future to take on the threat and even carry out need-based offensive 
operations.

At least two hackers engaged for the purpose are undergoing tutorials on the 
Chinese language. The agency has also appointed a Chinese language tutor to 
help the hackers learn Mandarin, the language of the Chinese so that national 
critical infrastructure is protected from the offensive operations of the Red 
Army.
