The government has banned 43 more Chinese apps in India for “engaging in activities prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India.” This is the fourth time the government has announced a ban on China-based apps over national security concerns. Though there are not many prominent names in the current list, AliExpress – the consumer e-commerce app of the Chinese giant Alibaba – has been banned from operating in the Indian market due to the new ban. AliExpress joins the likes of PUBG Mobile and TikTok as major internet players to get banned in India.
