Why did the Indian government ban PUBG and other 118 applications?


  This is the latest news on the go that the Indian government has banned a lot of, I mean, 118 applications (They are exactly the same number of elements in the modern periodic table!!). The greatest question is why?

  Many of the applications that we Indians used in our day to day life, were banned earlier in order to boycott China. But why again?

  Not only PUBG, but many other games like Chess, and Ludo which are developed and owned by Chinese people, are banned now. And now it is illegal to use all of these applications.

  It is really a big step to ban so many applications. They have been banned under Section 69A saying that these applications are causing harm to the sovereignty and integrity of the nation aand security of the cyberspace in India. These apps were supposed to take data from you which then can easily hack you or invade your privacy. That was the only need of banning these apps all of a sudden.

  These apps can destroy your security. There can be a potential harm to you as everything is in hands of China. And people who already have installed it, should uninstall these apps as now they are illegal to use. Anyways, they will be non-functional in some days.

  Here is a list of all apps that are banned:

  India is a largest consumer of these apps. Banning it from India is a good step. I can't judge on myself that is this step good or bad. But, I can assure and hope that this step might positively affect India.

  It is a discomforting but a preventative measure to be safe. And what we can do is just trust on Indian government. 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
