Sources told TOI the Centre has begun work on a policy that would stop mobile and internet apps to collect information that is “not necessary” for their functioning.

The government is going to have a “policy on preburning/pre-loading of apps on mobile phones”, sources said, adding that the concerns arose as “many of these apps are installed on mobile phones without the consent of the user”.
