Threat to user's personal information:

The government is worried about the fact that Internet usage in India is mostly done through mobile devices only. In such a way the devices are one of the main reasons for connecting with the online world. The sources also said that there has been an increase in the cases of hacking and stealing data along with the increase of digital transactions. Tell you that most of the Phones sold in the country are made by Chinese companies. The government feels that such cases can create problems between China and India, and this can leak the user's personal data.
