An informed senior Indian government official said that Microsoft's negotiations to acquire TikTok's US business will not affect TikTok's ban in India, because the aforementioned acquisition negotiations do not include local operations. On the evening of June 29, local time, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology of India issued an announcement announcing the ban on 59 applications from China, including ByteDance’s short video applications TikTok, WeChat, Baidu Maps and UC browser. The reason given by the Indian government is that these applications "damage India's sovereignty, national defense, national security and public order."
