PUBG Mobile Banned In India Along With 118 Other Chinese Apps

After banning TikTok and hundreds of other apps, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology(MeiY) has banned PUBG Mobile in India.

The Indian Government banned PUBG mobile along with several other Chinese apps amidst the ongoing dispute between India and China.

Last month, MeitY confirmed that they are monitoring PUBG Mobile along with other 258 apps. By monitoring these apps, the Indian Government wanted to ensure that the data of Indian citizens are safe from the hands of the Chinese Government.

To prevent the ban in India, PUBG Mobile also changed its privacy policy specifically for India. However, it looks like even after that, the Indian Government decided to ban PUBG Mobile in India, which is extremely bad news for the Indian mobile gaming community.

Here is the full list of banned apps confirmed in ANI’s tweet:
