54 Chinese Apps Banned in India; Find Full List
The Ministry of the Home Affairs has recommended banning 54 Chinese mobile apps, including the popular game Garena Free Fire, AppLock. As per PTI, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) will formally issue a notice prohibiting the operations of these apps in India. Here are the details.
The Ministry of the Home Affairs has recommended banning 54 Chinese mobile apps, including the popular game Garena Free Fire. Interestingly, Garena Free Fire is based in Singapore, and the developer is not from China. Last year this game was one of the most downloaded games in India last year and took the space created by PUBG Mobile after it was banned in September 2020. As some news agencies reported on Sunday, the app has already been removed from the Google Play Store and App Store in India.
As per PTI, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) will formally issue a notice prohibiting the operations of these apps in India. In 2020, the government also banned TikTok and other popular short video apps from China. When TikTok was banned on June 29, 2020, the list included around 59 apps in total. Other popular apps on the list were Shareit, Shein (the trending website and app), Xiaomi Mi Community, Clash of Kings, Weibo, Likee, etc.
MeitY had banned the earlier apps under Section 69A of the Information Technology Act, which states that the government has the "Power to issue directions for interception or monitoring or decryption of any information through any computer resource." This is usually when the government is "satisfied that it is necessary or expedient to do in the interest of the sovereignty or integrity of India, defence of India, security of the State, friendly relations with foreign states or public order or for preventing incitement to the commission of any cognizable offence relating to above or for investigation of any offence."
For TikTok and PUBG, the government had said that these were being banned "in view of the emergent nature of threats" as "they are engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of the state and public order." As a result, PUBG was banned in September 2020, along with 117 other apps. The third list of banned apps came out in November 2020, which included 43 apps.
