India banned 59 Chinese Apps,
including TikTok, Share It, Cam Scanner, and other renowned apps which were most common in use amongst us, and when tension has gained momentum across border with
China. The ministry of electronics and information technology, Gov’t of India
said that it has received an “exhaustive endorsement” from the Indian Cyber
Crime Coordination Centre & the Ministry of Home Affairs and so these Chinese
apps are detrimental to the sovereignty and integrity of India. Moreover, a big
concern over data security and safeguarding the privacy of Indian population
were also in the priority.
The action has been taken after Prime Minister Shree.
Narendra Modi said India has given a “befitting reply” to those who are in
further planning for coveting our territory. A countrywide call for boycott of
Chinese goods and encouragement of domestic goods under the campaign of “Atma
Nirbhar Bharat” has been initiated by him. Prior to this, the government made
it mandatory to mention the “Country of Origin” for sellers listing their products/services
in the Government e-Marketplace. E-commerce companies like Flipkart and Amazon,
nodded to follow this decision of government.
Indian Premier League(IPL):
Though the Chinese companies are not
just making their inevitable appearance into various Indian businesses, but
they are gradually gaining control over these Indian big businesses. Like the Chinese
technology giants, OPPO and VIVO are the title sponsor for the Indian Premier
League (IPL) which, as per the current agreement, have sponsorship rights
for the period of five years till 2023 with amount Rs. 2,199 crore (Rs. 440
crore annually). Likewise, many Indian businesses are under powerful clinch of
these big Chinese companies, which may get affected once the partnership or
sponsorship comes to an end.
Now the question comes?
(a) Are we saturated enough to compensate the damage in
the Indian economy on post-segregation?
(b) Are we ready to stand and support in addition,
after a big shrink in the economy due to lockdown?
(c) Is it possible to generate an equal amount of
employment for jobless who are working in Indian offices of these Chinese companies?
