Chinese Apps in India

India-China friendship was on a critical boundary
line, and to lit up this matter, Galwan Clash took place. Due to this clash, the
friendship between these two nations got a full stop. Thus, as a result, the
Indian Union Government banned 59 apps of China-based companies across India.
This move can be said as a technical strike imposed
by the Indian Union government on China. Due to this strike, India based
software companies are getting a good chance to spread their apps across India.
As per the companies, the data required by these apps will be safe &
secure.

big market for consumers. However, every Indian has agreed to this view; the
ban on these apps will surely break the backbone of the Chinese economy.
