The Indian government has banned 43 more Chinese apps in the country under section 69A of the Information Technology Act. This is the third set of Chinese apps that the government has blocked amid the India-China tension at the border. Some of the most popular apps banned in India previously include TikTok, PUBG Mobile, Camscanner, among others. None of these blocked Chinese apps are available in India right now. However, PUBG Mobile is gearing up to return as PUBG Mobile in the country.
Why are the apps banned?
This is the third phase of apps that the Indian government has banned in a row. The move from the Indian government comes amid ongoing border tensions between India and China.
After banning the new 43 Chinese apps the Centre issued an official statement that stated, “This action was taken based on the inputs regarding these apps for engaging in activities which are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order.”
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology further stated that the order for blocking access to these apps by users in India is based on reports received from the Indian Cyber Crime Co-ordination Center, Ministry of Home Affairs.
