It's hardly been a week since Tik Tok has been banned in India, since then, Google and Apple have blocked access to the hugely popular video app after the federal government sent a letter to the two platforms to abide by the state court's order. The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology had asked Google and Apple to block the app following the Supreme Court's refusal to stay the original Madras High Court order on April 3.

As per state court, the app encouraged pornography and made children more vulnerable to sexual predators. However, there were a few incidents which were reported in the media about fatal accidents which happened because of the use of TikTok.
