Why India banned these 59 Chinese applications, Including some extremely famous applications like TIKTOK, UC browser, etc?
As you have read above, everything is about the Indian data security. We all know the current situation at the India-China border. China is trying to enter India and they are making base camps there. Since India is also very concerned about their border security, BSF of India had a fight with them and many officers were Martyred. The main reason why china is doing so because of the CORONA VIRUS that has been spread in the world because of China. And every country is giving pressure to china and chains want to avoid these pressures and divert the issue from the CORONA VIRUS problem to the border dispute.
Moreover in India, there was the campaign started on BOYCOTT CHINA PRODUCTS. To support the people of India the government takes an initiative to overview those apps which are harmful to India. Govt. give this work to India's intelligence bureau and the found that these 59 Chinese applications have lots of India data and they have no servers in India for storing those data. All the servers are in China which may lead to a leak in the data of the 130 crores people of India.
Especially some applications like TIKTOK and UC browsers had a lot of Indian data with them and they are earning a lot from India but still, they don't have servers in trusted places so the I.B. prepares a list of these 59 applications and give it to the Ministry of home affairs. Then MHA puts a ban on these.
Why PUBG mobile is still safe? PUBG Mobile is a Chinese application or not?
All the gamers in India must have a question in their mind that is will PUBG be banned in the coming future? Is PUBG a Chinese game? Should they continue to play it or uninstall it?
Well, in order to know the answers to these questions we will have to go to the past when PUBG started.
"PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) is an online multiplayer battle royale game developed and published by PUBG Corporation, a subsidiary of South Korean video game company Bluehole. The game is based on previous mods that were created by Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene for other games, inspired by the 2000 Japanese film Battle Royale, and expanded into a standalone game under Greene's creative direction. In the game, up to one hundred players parachute onto an island and scavenge for weapons and equipment to kill others while avoiding getting killed themselves. The available safe area of the game's map decreases in size over time, directing surviving players into tighter areas to force encounters. The last player or team standing wins the round."

Let us provide you a piece of small and very important information that both PUBG Pc and PUBG mobile are different in terms of holdings.
The PUBG PC which was launched in 2017 by the PUBG corporation which is a subsidiary of BLUE HOLE Corporation which is another subsidiary of KRAFTON GAME UNION of South Korea. After that when the PUBG started to grow and get famous, China gets into the picture and take the distribution of the PUBG and made PUBG mobile and starts distributing it. i.e. Tencent games.
In short and simple words the PUBG PC is the holding of South Korea and PUBG mobile has investments of both the Chines company and the South Korean company since it's very difficult to put a ban on the PUBG game.
