TikTok denies India comeback after reports of website going live

TikTok, the popular social media platform, has denied reports of its return to the Indian market. The reports suggested that the company's website was live and operational in the country, fueling speculation about a potential comeback. However, TikTok has clarified that the website being referred to is not for the Indian market. The company stated that it has no plans to relaunch its services in India, where the app was banned in 2020 over national security concerns. The ban on TikTok in India was part of a broader crackdown on Chinese-owned apps, as tensions between the two countries escalated. The decision to ban the app was made by the Indian government, citing concerns over data privacy and national security. TikTok's denial of any comeback plans in India comes as a disappointment to its millions of former users in the country. The platform's popularity had soared in India, making it one of the largest markets for the app before the ban.
