The Centre orders removal of several Chinese mobile applications that have been used in Delhi to disrupt e-rickshaw operations, according to NDTV. The reporting cites statements from MeitY Secretary S Krishnan, who said the government will raise the issue with app stores to ensure that potentially harmful applications are not made available in the public domain. The directive focuses on preventing these specific apps from being accessed by users, after they were linked to efforts to stop or interfere with e-rickshaw movement in the city. The government’s approach, as described, involves coordination with platforms that host and distribute mobile apps rather than direct technical removal by the government itself. NDTV also reports the action as targeting seven apps, indicating a defined list of applications connected to the reported disruptions. The order reflects an effort by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology to address app-based measures that can facilitate public inconvenience or safety concerns, while working through intermediaries such as app stores to implement the removal.
