New Delhi, Jan 25 : The Union Government has decided permanently ban 59 Chinese mobile applications including TikTok.
The development comes several months after the government had first banned Chinese apps temporarily in last June.
The government had sought responses from the companies on the show cause notices, but sources said that it is not satisfied with their responses.
According to people in the know, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has sent notices to 59 apps including Tiktok.
