India banned dozens of the biggest Chinese mobile applications, including TikTok, in what it called a step toward ensuring safety and sovereignty of the country’s cyberspace.
The move, announced late Monday, comes after a recent deadly clash between security forces of India and China near a disputed border in the Himalayan mountains that left 20 Indian soldiers dead.
The rising tensions have come with calls in India for the government to retaliate against China in some way.
Among the popular applications that have been blocked include TikTok, UC Browser, Shareit, Helo, UC News, Kwai and Baidu Map, according to a statement issued by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.
