The Indian Government strikes again against Chinese applications. Now, a group of 43 applications gets banned this Tuesday under section 69A of the Information Technology Act.

In the official statement, the Centre said, “This action was taken based on the inputs regarding these apps for engaging in activities which are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order”

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology took this step to block those applications on basis of the reports from the Indian Cyber Crime Co-ordination Center.

Among the 43 applications, the most noted one is AliExpress. It’s an arm of China’s giant e-commerce platform Alibaba.
