With recent developments, including the arrest of Telegram’s founder "Pavel Durov" in France, the Indian government is scrutinizing the messaging platform for its alleged role in criminal activities such as extortion and gambling. This investigation raises the possibility of a ban on Telegram in India.
What Would a Ban Mean for Telegram Users in India?
🔏 Privacy Concerns: Telegram’s strong privacy features are a key draw; finding equivalent alternatives could be challenging.
💼 Businesses Impact: Small businesses leveraging Telegram for customer engagement and marketing may struggle, needing to rebuild their presence on other platforms.
✉ Messaging, Community and Channel Loss: Various educational, entertainment, and activist groups may be forced to disband or migrate, risking loss of members.
