Indian Intelligence agencies have ban almost 52 Chinese apps including Tiktok, Zoom, Shareit, UC News. These apps are becoming national security threat and making us a victim to data loss.
The step is taken regarding the privacy of Indian users as it has been seen that these apps are sending data outside India. The statement supported by National Security Council Secretariat.
However, the discussions are continuing on the recommendations as many chinese apps can not be blacklisted or ban in one go. So, the government will investigate each app one by one and then execute the act.
