India bans 118 more Chinese apps: Tencent's "PUBG" and Alipay on the list

India's Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MEIT) announced the banning of 118 more Chinese applications on September 2, including the popular Tencent mobile game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG). Other apps including Alipay, AlipayHK, search engine Baidu, several dating websites and even selfie-editing apps were also on the list.

In its statement, MEIT alleged that the 118 banned apps promote activities that are “prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, Defence of India, Security of State and Public Order”. PUBG is popular among young people in India with an estimated several million players.

The worst bloodshed between India and China in 45 years broke out at the border earlier in June, leaving at least 20 Indian soldiers dead. The media reported that the PLA raided with spiked clubs, but Indian soldiers met the attack with only fists and stones. The two sides fought for up to seven hours, with the conflict taking place on a steep mountain ridge, resulting in many soldiers from both sides falling off the cliff and freezing to death. Since then, tensions between the two sides have grown and eventually India announced a ban on 59 Chinese apps, including TikTok.
