Jitendra Awhad criticizes Modi's decision of banning Chinese apps

Amid border tensions with China, the government on Monday banned 59 mobile apps including Tik Tok, UC Browser and other Chinese apps "prejudicial to sovereignty and integrity and defence" of the country.

All the apps banned have some preferential Chinese interest and majority have parent Chinese compes.

NCP leader Jitendra Awhad has criticized Centre's decision of banning Chinese apps. He tweeted, "Maps are being changed there, and we're banning Chinese apps here. What childishness! Because we are a member of the World Trade Organization and is the ban even possible under Articles 2 and 14 (c) -2 of the agreement we signed?"

तिथे मॅप बदलले जात आहेत, आणि आपण इथे ॲप वर बंदी घालतोय. काय पोरकटपणा आहे! कारण आपण वर्ल्ड ट्रेड ऑर्गनायझेशनचे सदस्य आहोत आणि आपण स्वाक्षरी केलेल्या कराराच्या कलम २ आणि १४ (सी) - २ या कलमांनुसार ही बंदी शक्य आहे का ?
कशाला ही धूळफेक?
