India lifts TikTok download ban: has been restored on Google Play and AppStore

On April 29th, local time in India, TikTok was resumed on Google Play and AppStore in India, which means that the temporary suspension of TikTok in India has been successfully resolved.

Earlier this month, after receiving a lawsuit from a local lawyer, a court in Tamil Nadu, India issued a unilateral interim injunction to the Indian Ministry of Electronic Information without formal hearing. On April 17, Apple and Google App Store removed TikTok at the request of the government. On April 24, the Indian High Court of Madras revoked the previous interim order. On April 29th, India time, TikTok officially resumed listing.

It is reported that TikTok is not the first internet company in trouble in India. According to Reuters, Facebook and WhatsApp, which regards India as its largest market, have been facing regulatory pressure and are required to better handle fake news and monitor the content on the platform. Global video streaming giant Netflix was involved in legal proceedings last year for allegedly insulting the former prime minister of India.

Like Facebook and YouTube, TikTok's international development is not without difficulties and challenges, but each crisis is successfully resolved in a short period of time.

TikTok has always been committed to creating a safe community environment. There are 13 industry-leading measures in the station to escort the safety of every user, including risk warning system, anti-addiction system, comment specific word filtering and safety resource center.

Since July 2018, TikTok India has deleted more than 6 million videos that violate user agreements and community guidelines. According to reports, the TikTok India team has been actively communicating with relevant departments, expressing confidence in India ’s judicial system and information technology rules governing social media platforms. TikTok will continue to strengthen the technical means and content review process to improve the Indian user experience.

The relevant person in charge of TikTok said that TikTok employs nearly 500 people in India, and will continue to expand the team size in the future to provide more localized services for local users.
