India may decide to temporarily shut down BlackBerry Messenger and email services if Research In Motion does not address security concerns in a meeting to be held between the government and operators on Thursday, government officials said.
Union home ministry will press for some deadline to be fixed for RIM to share encryption details when government officials meet telecom operators on Thursday.
"The meeting will be held tomorrow to find a solution on this issue," U.K. Bansal, internal security chief said.
Govt says the Canadian smartphone maker's BlackBerry services could be misused by militants as security agencies cannot access the messages sent through these services.
The country's security establishment took a hardline view on RIM's stance that it does not possess a "master key" to intercept data traffic on BlackBerry, insisting it needs access to encrypted messages in a "readable format."
