As the tensions between India and China along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) continue, the Gove of India has decided to ban on 59 Chinese apps which are prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defense of India, the security of the state and public order. ## The government has decided to disallow the usage of these apps both in mobile and non-mobile Internet-enabled devices. ## The Full press release statement by Government of India ## The Ministry of Information Technology, invoking it’s power under section 69A of the Information Technology Act read with the relevant provisions of the Information Technology (Procedure and Safeguards for Blocking of Access of Information by Public) Rules 2009 and in view of the emergent nature of threats has decided to block 59 apps ( see Appendix) since in view of information available they are engaged in activities which is prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity of India, defence of India, security of state and public order. ## Over the last few years, India has emerged as a leading innovator when it comes to technological advancements and a primary market in the digital space. ## At the same time, there have been raging concerns on aspects relating to data security and safeguarding the privacy of 130 crore Indians. It has been noted recently that such concerns also pose a threat to sovereignty and security of our country. The Ministry of Information Technology has received many complaints from various sources including several reports about misuse of some mobile apps available on Android and iOS platforms for stealing and surreptitiously transmitting users’ data in an unauthorized manner to servers which have locations outside India. The compilation of these data, its mining and profiling by elements hostile to national security and defence of India, which ultimately impinges upon the sovereignty and integrity of India, is a matter of very deep and immediate concern which requires emergency measures. ## The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, Ministry of Home Affairs has also sent an exhaustive recommendation for blocking these malicious apps. This Ministry has also received many representations raising concerns from citizens regarding security of data and risk to privacy relating to operation of certain apps. The Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-IN) has also received many representations from citizens regarding security of data and breach of privacy impacting upon public order issues. Likewise, there have been similar bipartisan concerns, flagged by various public representatives, both outside and inside the Parliament of India. There has been a strong chorus in the public space to take strict action against Apps that harm India’s sovereignty as well as the privacy of our citizens. ## On the basis of these and upon receiving of recent credible inputs that such Apps pose threat to sovereignty and integrity of India, the Government of India has decided to disallow the usage of certain Apps, used in both mobile and non-mobile Internet enabled devices.

Ind-Pak Tensions: Indian Air Force Pilot Abhinandan Is Well In Pakistan

On 27th February 2019, Pakistan has released a video claiming that it is of an Indian pilot named Abhinandan Varthaman and he is treated well there. ## The Ministry of External Affairs slammed Pakistan over videos and photographs of an Indian pilot Pakistan says is in its custody. The MEA did not identify the person in question. However, the MEA was likely referring to the Indian fighter pilot whose MiG-21 was shot down earlier this morning. ## MEA: Acting High Commissioner of Pakistan was summoned this afternoon by MEA to lodge a strong protest at the unprovoked act of aggression by Pakistan against India earlier today, including violation of the Indian air space by Pakistan Air Force & targeting of Indian military posts. ## MEA: It is unfortunate that instead of fulfilling its international obligation & bilateral commitment to take credible action against terrorist entities and individuals operating from its soil, Pakistan has acted with aggression against India. ## IAF: Today, one Mi-17 V5 helicopter got airborne from Srinagar airfield at 1000 hrs for a routine mission. It crashed around 1010 hrs near Budgam, J&K. All six air warriors on board helicopter suffered fatal injuries. A court of inquiry has been ordered to investigate the accident. ## MEA: India also strongly objected to Pakistan’s vulgar display of injured personnel of the Indian Air Force in violation of all norms of International Humanitarian Law and the Geneva Convention. ## MEA: It was made clear that Pakistan would be well advised to ensure that no harm comes to the Indian defense personnel in its custody. India also expects his immediate and safe return. ## Pakistan says the pilot is Wing Commander Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman and has put out photographs and videos of him being interrogated. ## The Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement that it "strongly objected to Pakistan's vulgar display injured personnel of the Indian Air Force in violation of all norms of International Humanitarian Law and the Geneva Convention." ## "Pakistan would be well advised to ensure that no harm comes to the Indian defense personnel in its custody. India also expects his immediate and safe return," the MEA also said. ## Soon after Ghafoor's press conference, the Pakistani government released a video of a man in a flight suit. "I am Wing Commander Abhinandan," the man says before revealing his service number and religion. ## Another video soon started doing the rounds on Twitter. In this video Wing, Commander Abhinandan is seen sitting on a cot inside a room, sipping from a mug. He is being questioned by someone he identifies as a "major". ## In the second video, Wing Commander Abhinandan says, "The officers of the Pakistan Army have looked after me very well. They are thorough gentlemen." ## This footage definitely calms us! #Abhinandan clarifying that he has been treated respectfully by Pak Army.As per the Geneva Convention, Pak is supposed to hand over him back respectfully. #BringBackAbhinandan #SayNoToWar pic.twitter.com/yKEdN19IJ8— Sacnilk (@sacnilk) February 27, 2019 In a video, locals are seen hauling him up and punching and slapping him. In the second video, Wing Commander Abhinandan says that Pakistani army men saved him from the mob that was attacking him. ## For more and the latest news about India, stay tuned to us.
