Indian government bans another batch of 43 Chinese apps citing security concerns

Askwiki Exclusive

The Indian Government continues to hunt down Chinese apps in the country and has now banned 43 more apps claiming they are “prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order”. Apps like AliSuppliers Mobile App, Alibaba Workbench, AliExpress – Smarter Shopping, Better Living, Alipay Cashier, CamCard – Business Card Reader, WeDate-Dating App, MangoTV, WeTV and many more have been axed by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology in today’s announcement.

The announcement read:

The order has been passed under section 69A of the Information Technology Act that authorizes the Indian government to take down any application in the “interest of sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of the State”.

This is the third time the Indian government has resorted to this particular law to ban Chinese apps running in India. Earlier this year in June, the IT Ministry had banned 59 apps, including popular short-video platform TikTok, citing the same reason. Afterward in September, the Ministry again blocked access to 118 more Chinese apps which included popular mobile game PUBG. The series of bans were triggered by the events that took place at the Indo-China border earlier this year, where the armies of both countries were involved in a heated conflict.

“Government is committed to protect the interests of citizens and sovereignty and integrity of India on all fronts and it shall take all possible steps to ensure that,” said the Ministry of Electronics & IT.

1) AliSuppliers Mobile App
