NEW DELHI: Days after the Government banned 59 Chinese apps, IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad on Wednesday said India must develop its own apps and stop dependence on such foreign apps.
“… The dependence on these foreign apps with their own agenda for variety of reasons, must stop,” the Minister said adding that the ban presents an opportunity for Indian start ups and bright young minds to leverage their intellectual capability and innovative thinking and come up with “good” ‘Made in India’ apps.
Prasad was speaking at a conference organised by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology to commemorate five years of Digital India. (AGENCIES)
