TikTok and other Chinese apps banned in India

The government of India announced its decision of banning 59 apps of Chinese origin including TikTok on Monday, Twitter has kept itself busy creating memes on the subject. India banned the Chinese apps in the wake of border tensions in Ladakh after a violent face-off between the Indian and Chinese armies.


Apart from TikTok, the list of apps banned by the government also includes Shareit, Kwai, UC Browser, Baidu map, Shein, Clash of Kings, DU battery saver, Helo, Likee, YouCam makeup, Mi Community and CM Browers. India, however, has not banned PUBG and Zoom.


On social media, meanwhile, the internet is busy creating memes about the state of TikTok users at present. TikTok has the maximum number of users in India followed by China and the US. That PUBG hasn't been banned is also something that several netizens are celebrating.
