TikTok could be banned in India after July 22: What happened now and everything else you need to know
TikTok and Helo have time until July 22 to respond. Govt sources say that if no satisfactory answers received the govt may ban the two apps.
The govt action reportedly comes after a letter written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi by RSS-affiliate Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM). The Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM) co-convener Ashwani Mahajan in the letter requested PM Modi on Sunday to ban TikTok and Helo, claiming that these two Chinese social media applications had become a hub for "anti-national content" and they were "exposing India's youth to being influenced by vested interests".
