India's move to ban a total of 59 Chinese apps last month (June 29), has shocked everyone around the world. The step was taken after the Indian Intelligence agencies suggested the list of the app due to the border tensions between India and China. Before all of this, PM Modi had asked citizens to promote Atmanirbhar Bharat through the Make in India program.
This had opened up several opportunities for entrepreneurs, app developers and more to enter the market. The window liberated these people when TikTok, which was one of the most used apps in India, was listed in the list of 59 banned Chinese apps. Since then, many TikTok alternatives have emerged to grab a hold in the saturated market. Many users of the short video app have been looking for a good TikTok alternative to start creating content again. If you are also looking for Indian TikTok alternatives, here is all you need.
