<p>India’s information technology ministry said on Tuesday the apps threaten the “sovereignty and integrity of India”.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The banned apps include four from Chinese retail giant the Alibaba Group.</p>
<p>Tuesday’s move comes months after India banned scores of Chinese-owned apps, including popular short-video app TikTok and mobile game PUBG, saying it had received reports that they were “stealing and surreptitiously transmitting users’ data”.</p>
<p>China and India have been locked in a bitter border dispute for months in the remote Ladakh region.</p>

<p>The stand-off between the Asian giants erupted in early May into a fierce brawl, and then worsened on June 15 into hand-to-hand combat with soldiers using clubs, stones and fists, leaving 20 Indian troops dead.</p>

<p>China is believed to also have suffered casualties, but has not given any details.</p>
<p>The two sides have held several rounds of talks among military and diplomatic officials, but the stand-off has persisted.</p>
<p>India’s app bans have been hailed by governing party leaders as a way to curtail China’s growing influence.</p>
<p>Chinese-owned apps have found a fast-growing market in India, with some companies creating India-specific apps that have exploded in popularity.</p>
