From some weeks there has been a lot of tension rising on social media about boycotting Chinese products and apps. While there no updates about other Chinese products like smartphones, the government has immediately banned as many as 59 apps in India.

This decision of banning 59 Chinese apps & some apps which are owned by china in some or the other way is taken by following the advice of Indian Intelligence Agency to ban some of these apps.

This means these applications are going to removed from Playstore and App Store soon.
