The most recent reason is the #BanTikToklnlndia hashtag on Twitter. Actually, this Twitter trend has become quite viral after a video by Faisal Siddiqui. Faisal Siddiqui is a Tiktok star, followed by millions of users. On Monday, one of his videos on Twitter suddenly went viral, through which he has been accused of glorifying an 'acid attack'. As the video trended on Twitter, the National Commission for Women wrote a letter to Tiktok India and Maharashtra Police and demanded immediate action against it. Subsequently, the demand to ban the TikTok app began to arise.

Meanwhile, due to CarryMinati Roast video being removed from the platform, Google-owned YouTube said it had stricter policies that prevent harassment. A YouTube spokesperson said in a statement to Times Now, "We have strict policies that prevent harassment on YouTube, including using malicious insults based on intrinsic characteristics as a form of sexual orientation. We violate these policies To remove the content quickly. "

Notably, Tiktok has suspended Faizal Siddiqui's account, as his video surfaced extensively for allegedly glorifying acid attacks on women.
