New Delhi, Oct 25: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh doesn't own either a mobile phone nor a personal email and hence there is no concern about the latest US hacking revelations, sources in his office said on Friday.

According to a Guardian newspaper report published on Friday, US spies eavesdropped on telephonic conversations of 35 leaders across the world after the White House, Pentagon and State Department officials handed over the numbers.

The Germans have strongly objected to the alleged hacking of Merkel's phone

The new revelations, which were based on a classified document given by Edward Snowden, who leaked intelligence, come amid objections of German authorities against alleged hacking of the phone of the country's Chancellor, Angela Merkel.

But the Indian prime minister is not under threat for he doesn't have a mobile nor any personal email account, his office said, adding that only his office uses email.
