- On June 15, a few days after the Galvan clash, the government banned 59 Chinese apps.
- This time too, the decision to ban the app was taken when tension in Ladakh again increased.
The government has taken strict action against China’s mobile apps for the third time within 78 days of the clash in Galvan on the night of 15 June. The center on Wednesday banned 118 apps, including mobile gaming app PUBG. PubG has been downloaded by over 175 million people in India alone.
Giving information about the ban, the Center said that these apps threaten India’s security and sovereignty. For the first time, after the clash of Indo-China troops in Galvan, the government had banned 59 Chinese apps citing the same reason. This time also the government has taken this step when tensions in Ladakh are increasing and Chinese troops have tried to infiltrate twice. This happened when the commanders of the two countries were in talks to normalize the situation.
