Days after India banned 59 Chinese apps for engaging in activities "prejudicial" to the sovereignty and integrity of the country, Beijing on Thursday issued a predictable reaction, describing New Delhi's actions as "discriminatory" while calling for the reversal of the ban.

ByteDance turned one particular of China's newest homegrown technological innovation firms to run into expanding resistance from global governments wary of the perceived ties to the Chinese government and problems about preserving user info, it claimed.

The ByteDance apps banned were its short video platforms TikTok and Vigo Video, as well as its social networking app Helo. Users can download it from Google Play Store and Apple's App Store.

On Tuesday, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that it was strongly concerned over India's move banning 59 Chinese apps. After the TikTok ban, it is now among the top two free apps on Google Play Store. Warner - who is popular in India due to his IPL performances said that the government's decision should be respected and followed.

"We are seeing unprecedented numbers of games dropping off the Apple App Store China daily since Apple implemented this new policy on July 1".

"There have been statements in the press concerning the possibility that TikTok might pursue legal action regarding the directive by the government of India. We have been invited to meet with concerned government stakeholders for an opportunity to respond and submit clarifications".

In addition to Roposo, TikTok's local Indian competitive applications include Chingari and Mitron. "We have already announced our plans to build a data centre in India". The recent ban on TikTok is engineering an instant gain for similar Indian apps.

Customs officers at Indian ports have held back shipments from China and sought additional clearances after deadly clashes at the disputed Himalayan border last month. Number of downloads: The company claims that it has has crossed more than 2.5 million downloads.

"We welcome the move from the government against platforms that have had serious privacy, cyber-security and national security risks", Berges Malu, public policy director for ShareChat, told AFP.
