With just one day left for the deadline granted to RIM (Research in Motion), The Ministry of Home affairs is likely to hold a meeting today in second half with representatives of security agencies and Blackberry. The meeting will be presided by Home Minister P. Chidamabaram himself.

According to the sources, the government is likely to grant some more time to this Canadian company considering wider business perspectives for future in terms of India's growing telecom potential as a market.

Until yet, Blackberry agreed upon providing manual access to its highly encrypted instant messages to the security establishment of India paving the way for continuation of Blackberry messenger service in the country. It also gave its consent on transforming this manual access into an automatic one with time.

But the stance on Blackberry's highly coded corporate/entrepreneur mails is still in a fix. That clearly means its 1 million users in India will only be allowed to use their Blackberry gadgets with just Internet browsing and calls.

RIM uses powerful codes to scramble, or encrypt, email messages as they travel between a BlackBerry device and a computer known as a BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES) that is designed to secure those emails.

The whole of Telecommunication sector along with experts and all the sides associated with matter are keenly looking at today's meeting that the Home Ministry is going to conduct for a possible solution.

However, intervening in matter, Canada has said disrupting Blackberry services is not a genuine solution viable from the business point of view.
