Blocking orders have been issued by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) in response to an emergency request made by the Ministry of Home Affairs' Nodal officer. After it was established that these apps included content that violated Section 69 of the IT Act and was detrimental to Indian sovereignty, action was taken.
