BlackBerry mobile services have been in the country via Tata Teleservices in India as well…

The decision was approved after a long controversy over the concern whether the service poses a security threat to the nation!

The launch comes even as Indian government agencies are still investigating the security issues arising from the BlackBerry service, according to informed sources.

The company said that the BlackBerry security architecture for enterprise customers is specially designed to exclude the capability for RIM or any third party to read encrypted information under any circumstances.

Tata Teleservices was not available for comment on the launch of the service on Thursday, although it issued a press release.

The government may have allowed Tata Teleservices to go ahead and launch the service, having decided that it would later instruct Tata Teleservices and other operators about the aftermaths.
