New Delhi, May 26: IT and Communications Minister Arun Shourie said today the detention of Bangalore-based IBM employee Narendra Babu by Malaysian authorities could not be described as a case of singling out of Indian IT professionals, as the official was working for a global Infotech company. "We will certainly be in touch with key officials to resolve the matter... This time IBM is also involved and it would also take some action. So one cannot say Indian firm is being singled out. It is an Indian professional working for an MNC," Shourie said. Babu was detained by Malaysian authorities on Friday evening, when he was boarding a flight back home, for overstaying his visa.
