Highlights

The Indian Government says these apps were "prejudicial to Sovereignty and Integrity of India, Defence of India, Security of State and Public Order".

In a new move against the Chinese applications, the Indian Government has banned 118 more mobile apps. The IT Ministry also bans PUBG.

As per an official statement, the banned apps include Baidu, Baidu Express Edition, Tencent Watchlist, FaceU, WeChat Reading and Tencent Weiyun, besides PUBG Mobile and PUBG Mobile Lite.

In its notification announcing a ban on the Chinese mobile apps, the Government said these apps were "prejudicial to Sovereignty and Integrity of India, Defence of India, Security of State and Public Order".

Earlier the Centre had earlier banned several Chinese apps, including TikTok and UC Browser.

With the latest order, the Indian Government has banned 224 Chinese mobile phone apps in total. In June the Government initially banned 59 Chinese apps days after the violent clash between the Indian and the Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in Ladakh along the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

The second restriction order banned 49 more Chinese mobile apps in India.

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has banned these apps invoking its power under Section 69A of the Information Technology Act. It said the decision was taken amid growing nature of threats.

The Government further added that the action against these mobile phone apps was taken after it got many complaints from several sources about stealing users' data and secretly transmitting them in an unauthorized manner to servers located outside India.

The statement said, "The compilation of these data, its mining and profiling by elements hostile to national security and defence of India, which ultimately impinges upon the sovereignty and integrity of India, is a matter of very deep and immediate concern which requires emergency measures."
