सरकार ने 59 चीनी ऐप पर प्रतिबंध लगाया including TikTok as border tensions simmer in Ladakh
As tensions along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China continues, भारत सरकार ने 59 चीनी ऐप पर प्रतिबंध लगाने का फैसला किया है, including Tik Tok.
As tensions along the border continue, the Government of India has decided to ban Chinese apps diverting data and those with गोपनीयता समस्या।
Government has announced a ban on 59 such Chinese apps, including Tik Tok. The government has decided to disallow the usage of these apps both in mobile and non-mobile Internet-enabled devices.
A government press release announcing the ban stated: "सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी मंत्रालय, सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी अधिनियम की धारा 69 ए के तहत इसे लागू कर रहा है, यह सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी (प्रक्रिया और सार्वजनिक द्वारा पहुँच को अवरुद्ध करने के लिए सुरक्षा उपाय) के प्रासंगिक प्रावधानों के साथ पढ़ा गया है। 2009 और खतरों की उभरती प्रकृति के मद्देनजर 59 एप्स को ब्लॉक करने का निर्णय लिया गया है क्योंकि उपलब्ध सूचनाओं के मद्देनजर वे उन गतिविधियों में लगे हुए हैं जो भारत की संप्रभुता और अखंडता के लिए पूर्वाग्रहपूर्ण हैं, भारत की रक्षा, एक राज्य की सुरक्षा, और सार्वजनिक व्यवस्था".
The press release further said that the Ministry of Information Technology has received "many representations raising concerns from citizens regarding security of data and risk to privacy relating to the operation of certain apps".
"कंप्यूटर इमरजेंसी रिस्पांस टीम (CERT-IN) को सार्वजनिक व्यवस्था के मुद्दों पर प्रभाव डालने वाले डेटा की सुरक्षा और गोपनीयता के उल्लंघन के बारे में नागरिकों से कई प्रतिनिधित्व मिले हैं।," the press release mentioned.
It further says that the move to ban these Chinese apps move will "safeguard the interests of crores of Indian mobile and internet users". This decision is a targeted move to ensure the safety and sovereignty of Indian cyberspace, it said.
Earlier this month, data from the Finland-based mobile-ranking platform, App Follow, indicated that applications like TikTok have borne the brunt of Indian anger over Ladakh tensions.
The popular short-form video app was ranked 5 in top-ten free applications on Apple's platform in India before the May 5 scuffle between Indian and Chinese troops.
एक महीने बाद, TikTok ऐप स्टोर पर 10 वें नंबर पर खिसक गया।
Among Android users, the same Chinese application dropped from number 3 to number 5 in India ranking.
But it still remained on the list of top-ten popular apps in India.
Popular among youngsters, भारत में TikTok के उपयोगकर्ताओं की अधिकतम संख्या है, followed by China and the US.
TikTok crossed the 2 billion mark soon after surpassing the 1.5 billion mark in the first quarter of 2020. Out of the 2 billion, India turned out to be the biggest driver with over 611 million downloads.
