New Delhi: Indian security agencies have listed as many as 50 Chinese mobile apps that pose a security threat to the nation.

The apps listed by the security agencies include Tik-Tok, Helo, UC Browser, Zoom among others.

According to a report submitted by security agencies, sensitive data which can pose a threat to our country is being sent to China through these apps.

These companies have however refuted all allegations of sending user data out of the country.
